ELDER LAW

Elder Law Attorneys Serving Los Angeles, California

For all of us, there is a chance that we will become unable to make sound decisions as we age. If this happens to you, someone will be given the power to make decisions on your behalf — decisions regarding your medical treatment, your finances and your daily personal care. At the Law Offices of Mitchell A. Karasov, we offer comprehensive, respected elder law services to help our clients prepare for and adjust to incapacity.

If you would like to discuss elder law with a lawyer at the firm, call us today at 818.508.7192 or contact us online.

Responding to Unexpected Incapacity

Sometimes incapacity is the result of a gradual decline. Sometimes it is caused instantly by a stroke, car accident or other drastic event. If a loved one has not planned in advance for incapacity, we can help you implement a conservatorship which will give you or another trusted individual the right to make decisions on your loved one's behalf.

Preparing for Whatever the Future May Hold

If you plan in advance for the possibility of incapacity, you can avoid enormous amounts of expense and aggravation when the time comes to put the plan into action. The firm's attorneys offer a range of elder law services designed to help clients prepare for whatever may come:

Estate Planning includes information on powers of attorney, wills, trusts and living wills
Long Term Care Planning includes information on Medi-Cal and asset protection
Elder Care Planning includes information on matching your long term care to your personal circumstances
Probate and Trust Administration includes information on distributing assets after death
Elder Care and Estate Conflict Resolution includes information on preventing and handling intra-family conflict

In addition, we can also help you protect a vulnerable adult who you suspect is being victimized by elder abuse. If you are being wrongly accused of elder abuse, we can provide counsel to help resolve your conflict with the individuals making the false allegations.
