Estate Planning
  • Estate planning is a multi-step process that
    involves making decisions about your assets and
    people throughout both life and death. Wills,
    trusts, durable powers of attorney, healthcare
    surrogates, and other advanced directives are all
    common components of estate planning. Asset
    protection planning is included in estate
    planning.

Elder Law
  • Elder law is a broad approach to ensuring that an
    ageing client has skilled decision makers,
    receives the proper care, and is able to pay for
    their health care and living expenditures. Elder
    law attorneys collaborate with health care
    specialists to develop a comprehensive plan that
    suits the needs of each elder.
  • Elder can include, but is not limited to the
    following
  • Estate planning (wills and trusts)
  • Incapacity Planning (durable power of attorney,
    health care surrogate)
  • End of life planning (living will)
  • Long Term Care (Assisted Living and Nursing Home
    Medicaid)
  • Veterans Benefits (Aid and Attendance)
  • Probate and Estate Administration

Probate and Estate Administration
  • Probate is a court-supervised process for
    dispersing your probate estate after your death.
    It only governs assets that go through this
    process if you have a final will and testament.
    Before the personal representative is discharged,
    a last will and testament is filed with the
    court, a personal representative is appointed,
    creditors are notified, an inventory is filed,
    creditors are paid, final accountings are
    submitted, and beneficiaries receive their
    payouts.
  • Estate administration is supporting a family,
    typically a Trustee or Personal Representative
    "Executor," in dealing with each asset possessed
    by the decedent. This includes transferring
    ownership of IRAs, 401(k)s, and life insurance
    policies, as well as providing trust accountings
    and beneficiary distributions.

7
Real Estate
  • Hampton Law is available to assist with real
    estate closings. We are glad to assist with
    realtors, buyers, and sellers on title and escrow
    matters. Our combined efforts as a title and
    escrow business provide optimum protection
    against any risks that may arise throughout the
    closing process. Knowing that your closing
    documents have been examined by an attorney gives
    you more confidence and peace of mind about the
    deal.

Special Needs Planning
  • Special Needs planning involves planning for
    someone who is disabled to insure their quality
    of life is maintained as best as possible, even
    without family or friends around. For some, the
    words independence planning is a more appropriate
    term. We are striving to make the disabled person
    as independent as possible and not as dependent
    on the family.
