Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
So often people will say that they did not know they needed an attorney who practices Elder Law, or even that such an area of the law exists. Elder Law is not a new type of law, but it is a relatively new way to bring several areas of the law together to benefit a particular group of people - older adults. If you have wondered about Elder Law and how it differs from Estate Planning or other related legal services, this will help you gain a better understanding and help you know if you would benefit from using an Elder Law attorney.
Wills
Growing up in a small town in Kansas, strong values and ties to the community were instilled in Lori Leu from the start. After practicing as a civil litigation attorney for more than 20 years, Lori longed to focus on a practice area that would more directly benefit members of the community in which she lives. While searching for direction, Lori was approached by family members with questions regarding elder law issues. She then realized that assisting individuals who most need advice, especially when faced with confusing and sometimes overwhelming issues, was the calling she was seeking. As a result, Lori changed her practice to focus on legal issues affecting seniors and long-term planning, from simple wills to more complicated estate planning, financing of long-term care, including Medicaid eligibility, Veteran’s benefits, advance directives, guardianships, probate, and estate administration.
Trusts
A special needs trust is created by a parent, grandparent, or guardian in order to take care of a loved one under 65 who is disabled or mentally ill. This trust is used to supplement governmental help, such as SSI and Medicaid ( Public Benefits ). Funds from this trust are designed to enhance quality of life and can be used for things like vehicles, vacations, entertainment, and more.
Power of Attorney
Becoming/obtaining a legal guardian. If you or a loved one reaches a stage in life where you are no longer able to make important decisions for yourself, and there is no effective power of attorney in place, it may be necessary for a court to appoint a guardian to oversee your personal affairs or finances.
Probate

Bankruptcy
Tax Law
What does all this mean for those of us who aren’t billionaires? It means more federal budget deficit, for one thing. The IRS will miss collecting as much as $15 billion in funds this year as a result of the estate tax gap. On a more personal level, many individuals could pay higher capital gains taxes on assets inherited this year. There may also be an issue with wills that were written with ‘formula clauses’ that reference the estate tax. If the formula is calculated while the estate tax is at zero percent, the outcome could be very different than what was intended. To be on the safe side, check with the attorney who drafted your will to ensure your documents address these estate tax issues.
