Estate Planning
Report
Believe it or not, nearly everyone has an estate. Your estate is comprised of everything you own- your car, home, other real estate, checking and savings accounts, investments, life insurance, furniture, personal possessions. No matter how large or how modest, everyone has an estate and something in common-you can't take it with you when you die.
Fiduciary Services
Report

The fiduciary is responsible for overseeing all of the complex legal and financial issues that follow managing someone else's assets. Cucinelli Geiger, PC provides professional fiduciary services - which means that we are here to lean on, educate and be financial advocates during your time of need.
Guardianship/Litigation
Report
A guardian is defined as someone who is legally responsible for the health care of a person who has been declared incapacitated by a court. A conservator, on the other hand, is someone who is legally responsible for managing the finances of a person who has been declared incapacitated by a court.
The process starts with a petition filed in the city or county where the respondent lives, or where she lived immediately prior to moving to a nursing home, assisted living facility or other institution.Then, a hearing will be scheduled to prove that a guardianship or conservatorship is necessary and who should be appointed as a guardian or conservator.

Medicaid Planning
Report
Individuals who are faced with the need to enter a long-term care facility such as a nursing home or assisted living facility or who are being provided with similar care at home face the very difficult issue of how to pay for that care. Nursing home care can cost $8,000 to $12,000 per month.
While some have provided for this need with long-term care insurance and a fortunate few are able to afford their care without other assistance, most people find that long-term care expenses pose the danger of significantly and quickly depleting their life savings.
