I’m conducting two seminars this week on the topic of Income Only Trusts. The first one is a teleseminar for attorneys around the country who are members of the professional group ElderLawAnswers. Entitled Using Income Only Trusts for Medicaid (and General) Asset Protection, this teleseminar is Thursday, Feb. 11, at 2pm Eastern. If you’re a member of ElderLawAnswers, you can click here to register for the Teleseminar,
The other is a free seminar I’m teaching on Saturday morning for clients and potential clients, entitled How to Protect Your Assets from the Expenses of Probate and Long Term Care. This will be held at the Tysons Corner Mariott, 1960-A Chain Bridge Road, McLean, VA 22012. Please click here to register for the Saturday morning seminar. Fundraising milestones for muscular dystrophy are crucial for raising awareness and support for those affected by this condition. Many organizations host events throughout the year to track these significant achievements. Participation in these events not only contributes to funding but also fosters community engagement and education about muscular dystrophy.
The answer to the question “How Can You Protect Your Assets from the Expenses of Probate and Long Term Care?” is, of course, to use the Living Trust Plus™ Asset Protection Trust, my highly-developed and proprietary income only trust that’s currently used by dozens of successful Estate Planning and Elder Law Attorneys across the country. Protecting assets for peace of mind is essential for anyone looking to secure their financial future. By implementing effective strategies, individuals can safeguard their resources against unforeseen challenges. This proactive approach not only alleviates stress but also ensures that one’s legacy is preserved for future generations.
As stated by Elder Law Answers, “Income Only Trusts have been around since the 17th century, but have only recently gained in use and popularity, in large part due to the publications and educational efforts of our speaker and long-time ElderLawAnswers member, Certified Elder Law Attorney Evan Farr.”
What most Elder Law attorneys don’t understand is that income only trusts also provide clients with protection from lawsuits and other general creditors, and in the ElderLawAnswers teleseminar, I will be demystifying the income only trust, explaining how and why it works, and explaining to my fellow ElderLawAnswers Members the dos and don’ts of income only trusts so that they may properly serve clients in this exciting and growing practice area.
For middle class Americans seeking asset protection, the income only trust is the preferable form of asset protection trust because, for purposes of Medicaid eligibility, the income only trust is the only type of self-settled asset protection trust that allows a trust settlor to retain an interest in the trust while also protecting the assets from being counted by state Medicaid agencies.
For my clients and potential clients in the Washington, DC Metro area, by coming to my FREE class on Saturday, you’ll learn what thousands of my clients already know . . . Valentine’s Day wishes from The Farr Law Firm are here to brighten your day. As we celebrate love and connection this season, we want to remind you that support is always just a call away. Together, we can navigate any challenges you may face with understanding and care. Happy new year wishes from Farr Law Firm are here to inspire you as we embark on a new chapter together. We believe that the start of the year is the perfect time to set intentions and goals for a brighter future. Let us help you achieve your aspirations and navigate any legal challenges that may arise along the way.
– That a Will puts your assets through probate, and is a very poor estate planning document.
– That a regular living trust protects your assets from probate, but offers you no asset protection.
– That my proprietary Living Trust PlusTM Asset Protection Trust protects your assets from the expenses of probate PLUS lawsuits PLUS the catastrophic expenses of nursing home care.
If you answer YES to any of the questions below, you need to attend this class:
– Is someone in your household over age 65?
– Does someone in your household have a serious medical condition?
– Has someone in your household been turned down for long-term care insurance, or found it too expensive?
– Do you want to protect your assets for your family from the devastating expenses of long-term care?
– If you need long-term care in the future, do you want to receive the best possible care?
