Below, you will find several links to useful resources relating to elder law and the senior community.

Serving Our Neighbors in Westchester

Elder law is a special area of the law that deals with many of the legal issues seniors face in our country. Los Angeles elder law attorneys are experienced in handling the complex social and financial issues that seniors often deal with. To be good at their jobs, Los Angeles elder law attorneys need an awareness of the common misconceptions relating to the competency of the elderly and the aging process in general. If you are considering seeking the advice of an elder law attorney in California, here is some basic information to prepare you.

Common examples of the legal issues Los Angeles elder law attorneys handle

Some of the basic legal matters that an elder law attorney is equipped to handle include Medicare issues, Medicaid planning for long-term care, general estate planning and trust administration, probate matters, incapacity planning, and the need for conservators.

Estate planning considerations for seniors

When it comes to estate planning, in general, a comprehensive estate plan for seniors will most likely include, among other things, instructions for what to do if you become disabled or incapacitated; life insurance policies, disability income insurance policies, and long-term care insurance policies;  retirement planning strategies and business succession planning strategies to be used for retirement, disability or death.

Be sure to review and modify your plans as you continue to age

After your plan has been created, it must be gone over and updated to address any changes in your family and financial circumstances throughout your life.  Also, if you started out with a simple estate plan originally, you can expand that plan later in life, as your needs and goals for your family change.

How clients choose their Los Angeles elder law attorneys

Despite the fact that most Los Angeles elder law attorneys handle the same types of legal issues, not every attorney is comfortable working on every type of legal matter. So, when it comes time to find an elder law attorney to assist you, the first step is to determine which issues are important to you.

Let’s say you have questions about Medicaid and Medicare coverage for the long-term care you may need in the future, you should seek an attorney who frequently handles Medicaid and Medicare issues. For instance, if your spouse is suffering from a long-term illness, your attorney should understand how Medicaid planning works so they can handle any legal issues that may arise in terms of inheritance.

If you have questions regarding estate planning, trust contests, or any other trust administration issues, please contact the Schomer Law Group either online or by calling us in Los Angeles at (310) 337-7696.

We need to update our Living Trust and attended Schomer Law Group’s seminar. Afterwards we made an appointment and were impressed by the attention Scott Schomer and Liran Aliav gave to our case answering all questions and making suggestions how to minimize the estate tax. All the office staff is very friendly and we highly recommend Schomer Law Group.

We put off getting a trust for years. After attending a seminar with Scott Schomer we realized that the time had come to get a trust. We were given very good reasons for why we should get a trust. No pressure, just the plain facts. We are very relieved and happy to finally get our trust. Scott and Cesar were very knowledgeable, helpful and listened to our ideas of what we had to say. Any questions that we have now and in the future they are available to assist us to solve them. I recommend the Schomer Law Group and I wish we knew about them years ago.

When you’re presented with an invitation to attend in a mailer, you may have reservations, this was a truly gift!! My wife and I were educated and guided through the process of creating a family trust.
Both of our parents had attorney’s that “worked” with wills/trusts, but came up short. Fortunately, the Schomer Law Group was there! This is a group of attorney’s that only specialize in estate planning, law, and financial advice, so you know you’re getting expert and personalized advice. This is the best money we’ve ever spent!! Thank you!

We knew we had to update our 10 year old ( 20 page ) trust. After several detailed meetings, Liran and Cesar produced a large ( 300 pages + ) highly detailed trust document that we have used to make sure our family estate is well managed and clearly understood.
They were all very helpful in answering myriad questions and explaining all the various options…

We would strongly recommend the Schomer Law Group to anyone with an estate of even modest means, to assure proper planning…

We had contemplated updating our will and starting a trust for a number of years. After attending a talk by Scott Schomer we realized we were long overdue and the potential downside of not having our affairs in order was significant. Scott and his excellent team made the process simple and seamless. They were great listeners, addressed all our concerns and even pulled and processed all the paperwork from our financial institutions. If you are looking for assistance with estate planning, wills and trusts, we highly recommend Schomer Law Group.

Mr. Schomer was excellent in getting our family trust and estate affairs in order. My husband and I had put off doing this and Scott really made the process easy! He is very passionate in making sure his clients get all that they need and we really appreciated it. I would highly recommend him and look forward to the many years he will be available to assist our family.
