A will is a legal document. An estate plan is much more.

DIY forms, online platforms and even an attorney who practices in another area of law can produce estate planning documents. But who is looking at how your assets are titled, whether your beneficiary designations align with your will, if your trust is properly funded or what happens if your circumstances change?

The biggest estate planning mistake may not be answering a question incorrectly. It’s never being asked the right question.

Downsizing is often about much more than deciding where to live next. For many older adults and their families, a move can raise important questions about estate planning, long-term care, Medicaid eligibility and what happens to a home or other real estate as circumstances change.

TREEL Managing Partner Tim Rice enjoyed being a part of this panel to discuss how real estate can intersect with the four primary areas of our law practice:
1. Estate planning
2. Estate administration
3. Medicaid planning
4. Estate litigation

Real property is often an important part of the estate law conversation.

Thank you to Kathleen Boggs-Shaner, SRES CRS SRS ABR RENE AHWD MRP CPRES for the invitation and for bringing together such a strong group of professionals to share practical guidance with local seniors considering their next steps.

September is World Alzheimer’s Month, a time to raise awareness about dementia and the importance of early diagnosis.

This year’s theme, “The Earlier You Know, the More You Can Do,” also resonates with the work we do at TREEL. An early diagnosis can give individuals and families valuable time to plan, including reviewing estate planning documents, establishing or updating powers of attorney and health care directives, considering long-term care needs and making important financial and legal decisions while a loved one can fully participate.

Planning cannot change a diagnosis, but it can give families greater clarity and help ensure a loved one’s wishes are known and protected.

This World Alzheimer’s Month, we encourage families to start the conversations that can make a difference later.

A deed said the house belonged to a trust. There was just one problem: No one could find the trust.

When a family member later claimed he was a beneficiary of that missing trust, the dispute ultimately went to trial.

In this case study, we look at how TREEL helped clients successfully defend the estate plan and the lessons the case offers for anyone with a will, trust or property held in a trust.

Read more about the case and why keeping your estate planning documents coordinated, current and accessible can help prevent future disputes.

Helping aging parents with their finances often starts with something simple: paying a few bills, organizing paperwork or accompanying them to the bank.

But what happens when those responsibilities grow?

Without the proper legal authority, even well-intentioned help can lead to family disputes, accusations of undue influence or personal liability. A properly drafted power of attorney not only gives someone the authority to act, it also creates important fiduciary responsibilities designed to protect the parent.

Does your trust include everything it should?

Most trusts contain the same basic building blocks, but if your trust was drafted years ago, it may not address important issues such as digital assets, trustee succession, tax law changes or business succession planning.

Just as important as having a trust is making sure it still reflects your goals, your family and estate planning best practices.

Do you think you have to spend all your savings before Medicaid can help pay for long-term care? Or that applying for Medicaid means losing your home?

These are just two of the many misconceptions that can prevent New Jersey families from exploring options that may be available to them when a loved one needs nursing home care, assisted living or care at home.

Understanding the facts can help you make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes and better protect your family's financial future.
