Protect What You Have, Regardless of What You Have

There is a general misconception that asset protection is only a concern if you have millions of dollars. At Fitzpatrick & Associates, P.C., in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, we know asset protection is important to those with even modest amounts of property.

A single catastrophic medical emergency can drastically reduce the value of your estate, wiping out assets that otherwise could have been transferred to your heirs. Even basic nursing home care can run thousands of dollars a month. How would your spouse afford it?

By planning ahead and focusing on asset protection, you can reduce the chances you will suffer large losses due to unexpected expenses late in life. Contact us today to discuss your estate planning concerns.

We examine your individual situation to determine the best options to protect your assets. Our lawyers are client-focused, working closely with each. Rather than just focusing on your immediate concerns, we take the time to really understand your circumstances from a broad perspective so that we can effectively advise you of the long-term implications of all of your decisions.

Effective Medicaid Planning to Protect Your Assets

Medical expenses in later life can quickly drain any savings you have acquired during your life. Medicaid can help, but is only available to people with limited assets.

If you plan ahead though, you can ensure that you are eligible for Medicaid without having to "spend down" all of your assets. As part of our estate planning practice, we handle a great deal of Medicaid planning - helping our clients' eligibility for Medicaid. As necessary, we can help you retitle your assets or create trusts to limit the assets that are considered when determining your Medicaid eligibility.
