Putting Together the Pieces of the Aging Puzzle
From Estate, Asset and Retirement Tax Lawyer Rick Law of the Multi-Generation law firm at Law Elder Law in West Suburban Aurora, Illinois. Due to the nature of typical elder law representation, it is particularly important that we spend time educating our clients and their families to understand the attorney-client relationship. We have a duty to represent our client, and in doing so, put their minds at ease. That way, we can ask the important questions when the time comes. To be an elder law attorneys, it is a calling, rather than a calculated business decision. Usually due to the frailty of someone we love… a parent, a spouse, a sibling… elder law has chosen us. The fact, that the legal advice we provide may be the least complicated piece of the client’s aging puzzle is music to our ears. My goal has always been to explain how we help, and what next steps we can take, in simple, understandable English…at least when possible. Many times the client’s adult children have an agenda which conflicts with that of the senior. We strive to mediate those conflicts and seek our client’s best interests. We help clients and families put together the “aging puzzle” with its many ill-fitting pieces of frail health, caregiving needs, survivor care concerns, financial decisions, residential options, family relationships, insufficient assets, substitute decision-makers, cumbersome probate, end-of-life decisions, and more. I’ve always hoped to make the planning experience “transformational” rather than “transactional.” We strive to be more than dispute mediators, or standard document drafters. As elder law attorneys, we empower lives for the better in a way. This often impacts whole families for years to come. We believe that we are providing important services for our clients our communities, and our country. Too many families needlessly lose everything they have. Don’t let that be you.
