In the first part of our series on estate planning, we laid the groundwork for why incapacity planning matters and what documents you need to get started. But there's more to it than just having your paperwork in order. In this second episode on planning for incapacity, we take the conversation further by focusing on what happens when long-term care is needed. We'll walk through the different types of care—home care, assisted living, and nursing homes—and how to plan ahead financially using private pay, long-term care insurance, or Medicaid planning. We'll also highlight common pitfalls like outdated or missing Powers of Attorney, and the risks of DIY estate planning that can create real problems down the road. If you haven't reviewed your incapacity planning documents lately—or if you've never had them in place—this episode is your call to action. Although this show does not provide specific tax, legal, or financial advice, you can engage Devin or John through their individual firms.

Today kicks off a brand-new series on estate planning. Estate planning is one of those things everyone knows they should do—but far too many people put it off, sometimes until it's too late. And the truth is, whether your financial situation is complex or pretty straightforward, having a solid estate plan isn't just about what happens after you're gone. It's also about making things easier for your loved ones—and protecting yourself—while you're still here. That's why we're launching this special series to break estate planning down into simple, practical steps. We'll walk through the essential documents you need, the common mistakes that can derail a plan, and some of the more advanced strategies for protecting and passing on your wealth efficiently. Whether you're starting from scratch or just need to update an existing plan, this series will give you the roadmap you need. Now, we originally thought we could cover the first part of this in a single episode—but planning for incapacity turned out to be too important to rush. In this episode, we'll cover why incapacity planning is essential, real-life scenarios that make it critical, and the foundational documents every adult should have: Financial and Medical Powers of Attorney, and Advance Directives. Although this show does not provide specific tax, legal, or financial advice, you can engage Devin or John through their individual firms.

Did you know that the political and economic uncertainty you are all feeling puts you at greater risk of death or incapacity? In today's episode Tom explains that increased risk, and why now is the time to get your estate plan in order.

Britain is becoming sicker, with a sustained increase in levels of ill-health and disability. This creates financial challenges for families, and a fiscal challenge for the Government, with spending on incapacity and disability benefits forecast to rise from £40 billion today to £60 billion by the end of the Parliament. Everyone agrees that the current system is not working. But no-one can agree on how to change it. The Government will need to break that stalemate in its upcoming Green Paper.

Tune in here to this Monday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett shares a clip of New York Representative, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, claiming that American has turned into an oligarchy with Elon Musk in charge of the country. Despite reports coming out that President Biden has been mentally incapable of running the country since the early days of his term, we are only now entering into an oligarchy. Not when people behind the scenes ran the country, while outwardly facing President Biden was supposedly as sharp as ever, but now that the left's archenemy won the election and began appointing people to clean things up, we have apparently morphed into an oligarchy.

Today, we delve into the crucial topic of managing the affairs of aging family members, featuring Mandy Novak-Léonard, a trained social worker and president and founder of Les évaluations Mandy Novak-Léonard. Mandy shares her journey, expertise, and vital advice for families navigating the complexities of aging and dementia.Mandy Novak-Léonard's BackgroundMandy began her career in social work in 2001, focusing on crisis intervention. Her passion for assessments led her to found Les évaluations Mandy Novak-Léonard in 2016, where she primarily assesses seniors with advancing dementia, stroke survivors, and individuals with traumatic brain injuries. Mandy's work is in high demand due to the aging population and the increasing need for capacity assessments.The Importance of Early PreparationMandy emphasizes the critical need for early preparation, particularly in getting legal documents such as power of attorney and protection mandates in place. These documents ensure that a trusted person can manage an individual's affairs if they become incapable. Early diagnosis and preparation can significantly reduce stress and complications later on.Understanding Dementia and Its ProgressionDementia is a progressive disease that often begins with mild symptoms like forgetfulness and confusion. Mandy explains that early stages can be mistaken for normal aging or distraction due to significant life events. As dementia progresses, it becomes evident that the individual can no longer make informed decisions, necessitating legal measures like homologation of mandates.The Homologation ProcessHomologation is the legal process of validating a mandate of protection. This process involves assessments by a medical doctor and a social worker, followed by court approval. Mandy outlines the steps families need to take, stressing the importance of choosing professionals experienced in homologations to avoid delays and ensure a smooth process.Choosing the Right ProfessionalsMandy advises selecting a notary who specializes in homologations and can prioritize your file. Similarly, not all doctors are comfortable performing the required assessments, so referrals to specialists like neurologists or geriatricians may be necessary. Families should ensure their social worker understands the homologation process

Typically, when we think of estate planning, we only consider planning for after death. But what happens if you become incapacitated? That's where a Power of Attorney enters the picture. Incapacity planning is a significant component that is just as important, if not more important, than most other aspects of estate planning. Think about it. If you're in the hospital, you don't want to wait for your loved ones to go to court to access your funds to pay for care. You want care right away! So, in this episode of Absolute Trust Talk, we're addressing all the major ups and downs we've seen our clients face when navigating Powers of Attorney. Listen in to learn how to avoid the most common mistakes and ensure your Power of Attorney is ready to go if it is ever needed. Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 0:55 To start, we're covering the basics: What is a Power of Attorney? 2:55 There are two types of Power of Attorney – springing and immediate. Here's what you need to know. 3:40 Did you know that many Power of Attorney agreements include requirements such as getting two doctors to sign off on your incapacity “under penalty of perjury”? 5:35 You can have more than one Power of Attorney, but it's best only to have one. 8:45 An Institutional Power of Attorney only applies to a specific financial institution for which you sign the papers. 10:11 Next, let's discuss how to make updates if you have multiple Powers of Attorney and want to change who has access to what.

You may have heard the recent news that Jay Leno filed a conservatorship over his wife, Mavis Leno's estate. The couple does not have an estate plan, and his goal is to gain special permission from the court to set up a plan for both of them. As Kirsten and Madison point out, the main issue is not what happens if Mavis dies but instead if Jay were to die first. Given that Mavis is already incapacitated, who will manage their assets and decision-making? We hope you will join us for this discussion that underscores just how important it is to have an estate plan in place to avoid the costly and very public conservatorship court proceedings, among other protections. Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 0:53 To kick things off, Madison is shedding light on conservatorship and how it applies to the Jay Leno court proceedings. 1:57 Jay and his wife Mavis have been married for a long time and don't have any children. He is her heir if she were to die first, so why is he worried about an estate plan now? 3:36 This isn't the typical way to go about estate planning, and it certainly isn't ideal. Listen in a Madison discusses some of the issues with the approach Jay Leno is taking.

Capacity of Parties to Contract. Capacity refers to the legal ability of parties to enter into a contract. Law students should delve into the various factors that affect a party's capacity to contract: a) Minors: Minors (individuals under the age of majority) generally lack the capacity to enter into contracts. Contracts with minors are voidable at the minor's option, although certain contracts, such as those for necessities, may be binding. b) Intoxicated or Mentally Incapacitated Individuals: Contracts entered into by individuals who are intoxicated or suffering from mental incapacity may be voidable if the party lacked the capacity to understand the terms and consequences of the contract. c) Corporations and Other Entities: Capacity of entities to contract is determined by their legal status and governing documents. Ultra vires acts (actions beyond the entity's legal powers) may be unenforceable. Minors and Incapacity. When it comes to contracts involving minors, law students should explore the complexities of such agreements: a) Disaffirmance: Minors can disaffirm (void) a contract at any time before reaching the age of majority or for a reasonable time thereafter. b) Exceptions: Contracts for necessaries (essential goods and services) are generally binding on minors. However, minors are only liable for the reasonable value of the goods or services received. Contracts Contrary to Public Policy. Law students should be aware of contracts that are against public policy and therefore unenforceable: a) Illegal Contracts: Contracts that involve illegal activities or violations of law are void and unenforceable. b) Unconscionable Contracts: Contracts that are extremely one-sided and unfairly advantageous to one party may be deemed unconscionable and unenforceable. c) Restraint of Trade: Contracts that unreasonably restrain trade or competition are often unenforceable due to their potential to harm the public interest. Landmark Case: Lucy v. Zehmer (1954). The case of Lucy v. Zehmer illustrates the principle of mutual assent and the capacity to contract. In this case, the parties were inebriated at the time they purportedly entered into a contract to sell a farm. One party later claimed the contract was a joke, but the court held that the evidence indicated the parties had the requisite mutual assent and capacity to form a valid contract. Conclusion. Understanding the capacity of parties to enter into contracts and the limitations based on age, mental capacity, and legality is crucial for law students. By recognizing the rules surrounding minors' contracts, the effects of intoxication or mental incapacity, and the concept of contracts contrary to public policy, students can identify situations where a party's lack of capacity or the illegality of a contract may affect its enforceability. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

Estate planning isn't only for planning what happens to your "stuff" when you pass. A thorough estate plan includes legal documents that support you during your lifetime in the event of incapacity. Michele Procino-Wells & Amber B. Woodland are together in this episode to discuss both lifetime planning documents, and how and when they might be used. You'll hear them refer to the Power of Attorney as one of the most important legal documents that any adult should have, so this is a do not miss episode.

In this interview with RevDem assistant editor Giancarlo Grignaschi, Clara Mattei – Assistant Professor in the Economics Department of The New School for Social Research – talks about her new book The Capital Order: How Economists Invented Austerity and Paved the Way to Fascism (University of Chicago Press, 2022).

Considering what might potentially hang in the balance, logic would suggest that when it comes time to prepare an estate plan, nearly all of us would stick to a “just the facts” approach, steering clear of secondhand and ill-conceived advice from friends or flat-out inaccurate information that's been handed down from generation to generation. But let's be honest, estate planning can have its complexities and be confusing, so often, the information we have from our peers might be all we have. The problem is, when it comes time to put an estate plan into action, it's usually too late for do-overs. And, if that estate plan is built on faulty information or incomplete follow-through, the financial consequences can be substantial — even life-changing. Hard-earned assets that don't end up going to the intended beneficiaries, unintentional and seemingly harmless missteps that can result in legal action, and even woefully inadequate medical provisions at a point in life where they're needed the most. We totally understand that there is a sense of uneasiness that often surrounds the subject of estate planning. Almost nothing reminds us of our own mortality, like sitting down and strategizing for our pending demise or incapacitation. So instead of putting in the all-important due diligence to get to the bottom of the realities of estate planning — or better yet, soliciting the guidance of a qualified professional — many of us take the path of least resistance and rely on often expedient but faulty information that can bring on those severe consequences down the line. It's just too important a topic to rely on shortcuts, so in this episode of Absolute Trust Talk, Kirsten Howe and associate attorney, Madison Gunn, will not only examine some of the most common estate planning myths they've encountered in the course of their practices, but will also counter them with the actual legal facts. These myths will range from thoroughly believable to seemingly irrational. Some you may have even accepted as fact a long time ago, while others might leave you scratching your head in disbelief. But they'll all have one thing in common — subscribing to them can lead to many problems down the line. In this episode, we'll discuss: How, despite the best of intentions, lack of follow-through can torpedo major elements of even the best estate plans The misunderstandings that surround the concept of common-law marriage (Hint: It's not even a thing in many states) Why irrevocable trusts aren't the panacea that many believe them to be The variety of circumstances that can lead details of your estate plan to be divulged to people you'd rather not know about it What is required of an aging parent when it comes time to update their estate plan Why estate planning is essential even for those who don't have heirs or have amassed valuable assets And more. With all the misinformation surrounding estate planning that's circulated over the years, it might be hard at times to separate fact from fiction, but we're here to help! Join Kirsten and Madison as they clear up some of the most common estate planning myths they've encountered during their careers and replace these falsehoods with actual facts.

It goes without saying that trustworthiness is the number one trait you should think about when you choose a trustee for your estate plan.  Is the person going to do the job? Are they going to do the job right? Are they going to put the needs of the trust, estate, and other beneficiaries first? We know it's a lot to think about, and honestly, there is no correct answer when it comes to choosing your trustee or trustees because every family is different. While it may also seem logical to name your child or children as trustees, this route can also come with its own complexities and concerns. As parents, the last thing you want to do is cause your family stress or unhappiness should you become incapacitated or pass away. In this episode, Kirsten Howe and Madison Gunn talk about the factors to consider when naming your children as trustees, and some of the other more neutral options to think about, depending on your estate. Some of the points they cover include: Why you might want to choose two separate trustees; one if you become incapacitated, and another if you die. The personality traits that are important to consider in your trustee selection. Why splitting the trustee duties between two children equally may or may not be the right decision. When it might be suitable to hire a neutral third party to carry out your trust plans, such as a licensed professional fiduciary or a corporate trustee. And more. Carrying out a trust plan after its owner becomes incapacitated or dies is a big responsibility that takes much more time and effort than many realize. It's important to make sure the person you select will be able to do so fairly, in a timely manner, and with minimal friction alongside your other beneficiaries. Whether you've already selected a trustee for your plan or you're just getting started, this is an episode that every family should listen to. You may want to update your plan after you hear what Kirsten and Madison share.

Though it might seem like you've got everything covered within your trust document, estate planning is not just about what happens after you die. Issues can also arise in the event that you become incapacitated. Over the years we have seen all sorts of problems because not enough attention was paid to incapacity planning. If the current plan you have in place doesn't make it quick and easy for others to step in and take over on your behalf, delays can cause your own health and well-being to suffer. It can also cause confusion and disagreement among family members leading to more time and money in court. In this episode of Absolute Trust Talk Live, attorneys Kirsten Howe and Madison Gunn sit down to discuss the types of trust failures and challenges that may be experienced from a lack of planning for incapacitation. They will share some important documents and items that you need to include in your estate plan, as well as tips and strategies to make that plan work seamlessly for you and your family if someone else ever has to step in. Some of the topics covered in this podcast include: Why you should be putting ALL of your assets in your trust How to work with banks to honor your power of attorney The importance of refreshing a power of attorney every ten years New legislation that impacts trusts after incapacitation And more. Whether you're in the process of planning your own trust, or serving as trustee or beneficiary for someone else, this episode can help you anticipate unforeseen circumstances and avoid complications if incapacitation occurs.
