We firmly believe an informed client and a qualified attorney create the best team for our clients and their families. Liipfert Law Group supports our clients in achieving their goals by providing service in the following legal areas:

  • ELDER LAW

    Elder law is a specialized area of legal practice, covering estate planning, wills, trusts, arrangements for care, social security and retirement benefits, protection against elder abuse and other situations involving older people.

  • ESTATE PLANNING

    Estate Planning is as unique as a fingerprint – there are no two alike.  A well-developed plan is a final act of love you can provide your family and loved ones.

  • ESTATE ADMINISTRATION

    Estate administration can be overwhelming and appear complicated to an executor unfamiliar with the process.  The process is supervised by the court through the Clerk of Superior Court’s office and the executor must follow the rules of the court when acting as executor.

  • GUARDIANSHIP ADMINISTRATION

    A guardianship is a court approved arrangement that is helpful when a person become incapacitated or incompetent and cannot manage their own financial or personal affairs.

  • SPECIAL NEEDS TRUST

    A Special Needs Trust is for people with disabilities who require medical and other services to maintain the level of care needed and the benefactor wishes to provide.

  • TRUST ADMINISTRATION

    Other trusts may include, funding college for grandchildren, minimizing tax liability and preserving wealth, or creating a charitable legacy.
