Contact me to arrange your free initial consultation to discuss important estate issues and the legal options that can be used to protect assets and ensure your wishes are carried out properly after your passing. For more than a decade, I enforced the law. As an estate attorney, I use that experience to protect and enforce your interests and legal rights. Bowie Asset Protection LawyerAs the founding attorney of the Law Offices of Terrence M. McGrath, LLC, I have become well-known for my comprehensive knowledge of federal and state taxation laws and complex estate issues, such as the decision the way property should be held, forms of business organizations, trusts, wills and more.
- Trusts and wills: Trusts and wills are important estate planning documents that are quite different from each other. In the vast majority of situations, a trust ensures your heirs avoid probate, and a will ensures they will engage in the probate process. I can guide you through the complex series of decisions to determine what combination of estate planning tools is right for you.
- Elder law: As people age, their legal and financial concerns frequently shift to planning for nursing home care or eventual incapacitation. It is always better to plan ahead for these changes in your life. As a Bowie asset protection attorney, I can help you with the legal transfer of assets, thereby qualifying you for Medicaid and protecting your assets from the rising cost of nursing home care.
- Probate: Are you responsible for managing the final affairs of an estate? I can ensure that you meet your responsibilities in a timely and seamless manner. While probate can be avoided through the creation of trusts, not every person chooses this route. If you are involved in the probating of a will, talk to my law firm for guidance.
- Durable powers of attorney: When you are either incapacitated or out of the area, drafting a durable power of attorney allows you pass your legal decision making authority on to another party.
- Living wills: Completing a living will allows you to make decisions regarding your medical care and standard of living.
- Advanced directives: I can assist you in designating a loved one to make important health care decisions on your behalf.
