Our founder, Mark Collins, is a member of the National Association of Elder Law Attorneys, the Elder Counsel, LLC, and the Elder sections of both the Kentucky and Tennessee Bar Associations. He is active in his church, Elkton Baptist and the local American Legion. At Collins Law, PLLC, we strive to bring this level of excellence and community care to every elder law case that comes through our offices.
Elkton, Kentucky, is home to over 2,500 individuals, 492 of whom are seniors. As people age, complicated legal issues related to health and finances can arise. At Collins Law, PLLC, we are here to assist with a wide variety of these legal concerns and have helped hundreds of clients who come to our offices with questions about their future or the future of their aging parents. Our elder law services include the following:
These aren’t easy topics to discuss, and the decisions that need to be made are often just as difficult. At Collins Law, PLLC, our attorneys are experienced with the local, state, and federal rules that govern these common elder law issues and can help explain what legal options are available to you and your loved ones. Many of these rules and regulations are unknown to most of the population, which is why we are here to help your family through every stage.
Our team is passionate about helping senior individuals and their families preserve necessary financial resources through proper and comprehensive estate planning and other elder law tools. We understand the expenses and concerns that can arise as individuals grow older and can guide you through all of the legal processes to prepare your entire family for the challenges associated with aging.
At Collins Law, PLLC, one of our core elder law services is that of long-term care planning. Long-term care planning is a legal strategy we can devise that works to prepare your estate for the high costs that might accompany growing older, such as necessary in-home care or taking up residency at an assisted living or nursing home facility. According to a recent study, assisted living costs are around $5,030 a month, which can come as a massive shock to any family.
When it comes to getting assistance from the government to help pay some of these costs, you might not qualify if you own assets totaling a certain value. That is where an attorney can step in. At Collins Law, PLLC, we can evaluate your financial resources and help preserve your assets and savings, while still getting you the long-term care coverage you need.
Our team is passionate about answering all of your long-term care planning questions and working to keep your elderly loved ones living comfortably, while leaving a legacy behind that can last for generations.
Your loved one has worked hard for the things they now own and the assets they are so proud of. At Collins Law, PLLC, we are passionate about helping your elderly family members protect those assets and gain a greater sense of control over how the assets will be owned and distributed following their passing. Creating an estate plan is one of the most efficient ways of protecting your assets even after your death. We can help create a comprehensive estate plan, including:
These necessary estate planning documents can empower specific individuals to manage your assets and make both financial and medical decisions on your behalf when you become unable due to incapacitation. Without these documents in place, the Kentucky courts will make them for you, and your wishes may not be followed.
When you go about creating your estate plan, it is important that you consider who your designated beneficiaries will be for assets such as all annuities, retirement plans, life insurance benefits, and valuable property. At Collins Law, PLLC, we can help.
When the time comes to hire an elder law attorney, look no further than the dedicated and compassionate team at Collins Law, PLLC. We know that elder law decisions are complicated, and emotions can run high. We hope to be there for you and your loved ones to offer assistance in navigating these challenging times.
