Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Estate Planning in New York & New Jersey
What is the difference between a will and a trust in New York?
A will takes effect after death and must go through probate court in New York. A trust can take effect immediately, avoids probate, and provides more control over how and when your assets are distributed. Many New York families use a combination of both as part of a comprehensive estate plan. Learn more about wills and trusts planning.
How does Medicaid planning work in New York and New Jersey?
Medicaid planning helps protect your assets while qualifying for long-term care benefits. In New York, the look-back period is 30 months for home care and 60 months for nursing home care. New Jersey has a 60-month look-back for all institutional care. Early planning with an experienced elder law attorney is essential to protect your family's savings.
Do I need an estate plan if I live in New York City?
Yes. Without an estate plan, New York's intestacy laws determine who inherits your assets — which may not align with your wishes. An estate plan also helps minimize estate taxes. New York has its own estate tax with a threshold that differs from federal exemptions. Proper estate planning protects your family and ensures your legacy.
