Wills - Trusts - Medicaid Planning - Asset Protection
Everyone should be able to afford an estate plan. Using legal tools such as wills, trusts and advance health care directives, an estate plan puts a person's wishes into a concrete and unbreakable format. By doing so, an estate plan provides peace of mind regarding both your financial and your medical future.
As with all of the areas of law we practice, The Mathews Group, LC, in the Leawood, Kansas, area offers estate planning services based on a distinct philosophy of legal practice. We provide almost all estate planning services for a low cost, and we do more than use pre-formulated documents that may not provide enough protection.

The Goals of Estate Planning
Estate planning has many different goals, all of which can be met by professionally generated ironclad legal documents.
Distribution of assets: A will or a series of trusts can be used to designate beneficiaries of your estate.
Health care planning: An advance health care directive (also called power of attorney or living will) puts you in the driver's seat with regard to medical decisions that must be made if you become incapacitated.
Asset protection: Several different strategies can be used to protect your assets from estate taxes, gift taxes and creditors. These strategies include family limited partnerships, life insurance trusts, survivor trusts and offshore corporations and trusts.
Medicaid planning: As part of an asset protection strategy, your estate plan can make provisions to protect your private financial assets from end-of-life expenses such as nursing home care.
