Estate Planning and Elder Law Lawyers in St. Petersburg & Tampa, FL
The Baby Boomers’ Barrister is the leading estate and long term care planning law firm in Tampa Bay catering exclusively to Baby Boomers and their parents.
Baby Boomers are members of the generation born between 1946 and 1964. We came of age in the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s. We are competent and resourceful. We are often identified as the “sandwich generation” because we are now called on to take care of both our children and our parents.
The Baby Boomers’ Barrister offers outstanding legal assistance to Baby Boomers who are developing or updating their estate plans, and who are concerned about the increasing incapacity of their parents (or themselves) and need help with long term care planning and financing.
It is never too soon to begin planning for the future. The Baby Boomers’ Barrister: Estate Planning and Elder Law is an estate planning and elder law firm in St. Petersburg, Florida that can assist you with your Will or Trust, and long term care planning, including Medicaid and pension planning. Having a sound Will in place can give you the peace of mind that your property will pass on to those you designate and that your wishes will be carried out. There are many different types of estate planning instruments available to individuals in St. Petersburg, Florida. Writing a will is one way to plan your estate, but some families choose to use a Revocable Living Trust. The type of estate planning method you will use will depend largely on your individual needs. A trust can permit assets to avoid the probate process altogether and may save a significant amount of money. Probate is the process by which a will is proven in court after a person passes away. The method you choose will depend on your income, assets, and individual needs. Baby Boomers’ Barrister: Estate Planning and Elder Law is an estate planning law firm in St. Petersburg, Florida who can assist you with drafting a will, establishing a trust, and help you with Medicaid.
We help baby boomers and their parents find answers to questions, such as:
- How can I maintain control over my assets while I am alive, and ensure they will be distributed according to my wishes when I pass away?
- How can I ensure that the assets I leave to my surviving spouse and heirs are safe?
- How can I pass my values and work ethic to future generations?
- How can I ensure that my parents or I get the care needed if incapacitated, and protect our life savings against the high cost of long-term care?
While the focus of our practice is helping people avoid probate and guardianship, for those who never got around to it, we offer assistance with probate and guardianship proceedings.
Get answers to all of these questions and more.
