How can I protect my assets during my lifetime?

Protecting your assets during your lifetime in California is important to ensure that you have enough assets to last through your later years. Elder law provides some important protections for you and your assets. Through estate planning, you can establish a legal plan for the management of your assets that enables you to control how they will be dispersed after you pass away. Additionally, a revocable trust can be set up which helps to protect assets during your lifetime and can be amended or revoked as needed. Another option to protect your assets is to designate a power of attorney. This will designate someone to take care of your affairs, such as making decisions regarding your healthcare, financials, and more. By having this in place, you can make sure that your financials and personal affairs will be managed according to your wishes. Lastly, Medicaid planning can help to protect your assets if you should ever need long-term care in the future. Through this type of planning, you can preserve your assets for future generations. Contacting an elder law attorney or financial planner can help you plan for asset protection to ensure that your assets are protected during your lifetime.
