New Year’s Resolutions

Elder Law

By Robert M. Goldberg

Resolutions 1 & 2 

A new year offers a natural moment to focus on long-term security for your family. Over the next month, we are going to go over 6 Estate planning goals. Let’s start with two important estate planning goals that often go hand in hand.

Resolution 1. Create a Revocable Living Trust to Avoid Probate

A revocable Living Trust helps families avoid probate, reduce delays, and keep personal matters private. Assets pass more smoothly to loved ones, which can ease stress during difficult transitions.

Resolution 2. Create an Irrevocable Trust to Protect Assets

An Irrevocable Trust focuses on asset protection and long-term care planning. Families concerned about Medicaid eligibility or preserving savings for a spouse often explore this option early.

Both Trusts serve different purposes, and choosing the right structure depends on family needs, health concerns, and timing. Both can help protect you and your loved ones’ legacy.

What our clients say about us

I needed an Irrevocable Trust for my dad. Robert Goldberg and Jessica at Robert M. Goldberg & Associates were both incredibly hospitable and made the process understandable and easy for me. I’ve enjoyed the ease-of-accessibility and kindness and knowing my questions would be addressed quickly. A+ experience.
