A Practical Guide to Protecting Your Assets from Probate, Nursing Home Costs and Taxes
In this book we take the mystery out of estate planning, and we explain the use of wills, trusts, powers of attorney and advance medical directives. We show you how these documents work, and how they can be used to effectively pass assets to the next generation, and keep your family from having to go to court and for estate administration and guardianship proceedings.
We give you a layperson's explanation of the complex federal and state Medicaid laws and rules, as well as new laws concerning possible liability of the people who act as your powers of attorney. The laws are full of traps for the unwary, which can be very expensive, time-consuming and frustrating for people who do not know the rules.
Many families have children with disabilities who cannot, or should not, inherit money or property directly. In the worst case, an adult child who is receiving government benefits can lose both the benefits and the inheritance. We explain how a special needs trust can protect the inheritance and the public benefits. Many families have adult children who are in financial difficulty, or who are not good with money, or who are in shaky marriages. We explain how to protect an inheritance in these cases.
We explore the issues surrounding second marriages. Second marriages pose unique issues with regard to long-term care, as well as dealing with siblings/children who do not know each other, and who can be at odds with one another.
Finally, almost everyone these days has social media and e mail accounts, as well as collections of digital photos, music and records. These so-called "digital assets" must be managed properly. If not, they can cause many problems after death.
This book is full of useful ideas that clarify estate planning and make it easy to digest. Readers will learn how to protect themselves and their families from catastrophic financial loss to a nursing home stay, and will learn how to simplify and streamline the process of passing assets down to the next generation.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
