Estate Planning for the Final Years of Life

Identify key issues to consider when counseling for final years of life.

Many practitioners are not aware of all of the issues to consider when counseling a client for final years of life. This topic helps identify many issues to consider when counseling for final years of life. It is more than simply drafting a will. Given the increase in longevity, it is possible that a client may develop cognitive problems in his or her final years, and planning for this is as important as the disposition of the estate after the person dies. Failure to be aware of such issues could even result in ethical problems and a complaint with the state bar association.
