Guiding Seniors Through Estate Planning
For over 50 years, we have assisted seniors with their unique legal issues, in Canton, Ohio, and throughout Stark County, Carroll County, Tuscarawas County, and Summit County, including:
- Estate Planning
- Asset Protection
- Wills and Trusts
- Powers of Attorney
- Advance Directives (Healthcare and Living Will)
- Avoiding Guardianship
Often one of the most pressing concerns facing seniors is the care and security of their families upon their death. After attentively listening to your wishes, we carefully analyze your estate and advise you on how best to transfer your assets, minimize estate taxes, establish guardianship for minor children, support personal philanthropic causes and even protect a beloved pet. We can draft a will that reflects your desires and establish trusts and other legal entities beneficial to your estate.
A Word on Elder Abuse
In 2018, a new Ohio law expanded the definition of elder abuse and the groups of individuals required to report suspicions of it. You can read more about the changes here. Reports of elder abuse can be made to local adult protective services or by calling 1-855-OHIO-APS (1-855-644-6277) 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
