Estate planning is a powerful phrase with a simple aim: To create a plan to protect yourself and your loved ones in the event of sickness, accidents or death. https://bit.ly/3kAfurW
Estate planning is not only for the wealthy, it's for everyone. Here's how you can get started.
You finalized a will, made sure beneficiaries are named on financial accounts, signed all other pertinent documents and picked an executor to carry out your wishes when you die. You might have overlooked one consideration: whether you should share the details of your efforts with your adult children. https://cnb.cx/3pzpepP
Estate planning is a delicate subject, regardless of whether you decide to share just the basics or more detailed information about your plan.
It could be assumed that during a pandemic there would be fewer people driving and fewer accidents and road deaths. But research suggests that the picture is much more complicated. https://bit.ly/2Izk902
Why is it that when there are fewer people on the roads in a pandemic, there are more accidents and fatalities?
Having witnesses to back up your story can be valuable when pursuing a personal injury claim. Since memories fade quickly, it's best for witnesses to be contacted promptly after an accident. An attorney can help you track down witnesses, gather statements, or decide who to call.
Trusts are an essential part of many estate plans. Here are the key terms and concepts of the most widely-used types of trusts. https://bit.ly/2J1Rh0o
Trusts are essential to many estate plans, but few people understand them well enough.
Without proper estate planning documentation, a person’s wishes for their assets may not be followed. Beyond a will, there are documents in place that can assist in describing how their wishes are conducted, and types of accounts that can hold significant assets. https://on.mktw.net/3kIZHHS
Key questions and considerations to make when beginning your estate planning.
When you’re in a car accident, you want to be prepared, whether or not you caused the collision. Preparation will help you protect your ability to make a claim against a driver, and also protect you if another driver falsely blames you for the accident. https://bit.ly/3jmxR2H
Car accidents, even just fender benders, are an unfortunate fact of life. Even though fewer cars are on the road during the pandemic—16% fewer according to Zendrive, a smartphone-based driving analytics app provider—drivers might be more distracted. Phone use while driving was up 38% after lockd...
A growing number of negligence suits are being filed across the country against nursing homes and other long-term care facilities by families whose relatives died from the coronavirus while living in such facilities. https://bit.ly/3m9LpAG
In mid-April, Faith Heimbrodt got a call from the Bria Health Services nursing home in Geneva, Illinois, saying her mother, Carol Orlando, was not in good health. She immediately feared COVID-19. But she says facility staff insisted her 79-year-old mother didn’t show symptoms of the virus, and tha...
No one likes to think about dying or about someone else raising their children. But a will can guide your loved ones, head off family feuds and potentially save your family thousands of dollars. http://bit.ly/2OrUEi5
Many people procrastinate on writing a will, but dying without one can cause serious problems for your loved ones. Here are ways to get the chore done.
Estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy and aging. It also includes provisions for while you’re still alive, and everyone can benefit from having a plan in place if they’re no longer able to care for themselves or make important decisions. http://bit.ly/2qv8cPB
If you have a college-aged child, estate planning is probably the last thing on your mind. However, estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy and aging. It also includes provisions for while you’re still alive, and everyone can benefit from having a plan in place.
Knowing how debt works after death and being prepared with clear instructions for inheritors is one of the best ways to ensure that all your hard work pays off. https://on.mktw.net/2W2p63Y
Knowing how debt works after death and being prepared with clear instructions for inheritors is one of the best ways to ensure that all your hard work pays off.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) offers up another reason we need to get rid of COVID-19: reckless driving is up, and causing more deaths. https://bit.ly/3liXVgx
In the COVID-19 era, fatal accident percentages are up this year despite the smaller number of vehicles on the roads, NHTSA's latest data shows.
Complex strategies and the ever-evolving tax code can make estate planning feel intimidating. However, ignoring it can be a costly mistake for your heirs, even if you don't have a lot of money in the bank. https://bit.ly/3jleurL
The inheritance you leave could be eaten away by taxes or given to the wrong person. Here are five tips to avoid that.
When do you need your estate plan to "go to work" for you? While you may think the right answer is "after I die," the actual answer is "if I lose the ability to manage my own affairs." https://bit.ly/2ExpwLk
Understanding the difference between two types of Power of Attorney
#AutoAccidents are chaotic by nature, and the aftermath can be, too. Have your camera ready and be prepared to file a police report.
Accidents are chaotic by nature, and the aftermath can be, too. Here's how to handle a variety of scenarios at the scene.
No one likes to contemplate their mortality but making basic preparations with your finances can save your loved ones from financial stress while grieving your loss. Make sure to use beneficiary and POD designations whenever possible and have a will drawn up by an attorney to outline your final wishes. https://bit.ly/34eg7RV
You can’t take it with you, so what happens to your bank account after you pass on?
If you're involved in a serious accident, it's important to seek and document medical care as soon as possible.
Medical evidence is crucial to the success of personal injury claims, and prompt treatment can improve medical and legal outcomes.
The nation is grappling with a pedestrian safety crisis that has worsened in recent years: The number of pedestrians killed in the U.S. hit a 28-year high of 6,283 in 2018, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. That figure was up 46% from 2010. https://bit.ly/32IkZPu
Angie Schmitt's book, "Right of Way: Race, Class, and the Silent Epidemic of Pedestrian Deaths in America," exposes the U.S. pedestrian safety crisis.
There is significant complexity with the laws surrounding special needs trusts, so having an attorney with experience in the area is key. https://bit.ly/2HbZ2jB
If you are the parent of a person with special needs, you’re well aware the role you play is very different than it may be for other children. Properly planning to meet their financial needs, both in the immediate and long term, is a critical part of supporting your child. This support often must
With a rise in “gray divorces” in recent years, it’s only natural that remarriage has become more prevalent among seniors. But people tend to be lax about updating their estate plan. https://bit.ly/2Hb3Zcp
It’s easy to have an estate plan fall out of date following a remarriage, but the consequences for even unintentional missteps can be devastating, particularly for children from a first marriage or your new spouse.
Every estate should have a will and some estates may include trusts. Your estate planner can help you to determine which vehicle fits best with your estate and your goals for cost, efficiency, privacy, and more. http://bit.ly/2Lzeea0
Either a will or a living trust can be the foundation of your estate plan. The best choice for one person isn't best for another.
It is important to make sure we have current estate planning decisions and end-of-life decisions in place. https://bit.ly/32XLyir
Putting off creating a will or trust leaves nothing but headaches for your heirs and relatives. There's no time like the present to do some estate planning.
While end-of-life planning may seem morbid, an estate plan can protect you and your assets not just after you die, but during your life as well.
Although we typically associate the term “estate” with the ultra-wealthy, estate planning is not just for the rich. Everyone, regardless of family dynamics or financial status, can benefit from having an estate plan—a collection of documents that specify how you want your assets distributed.
If something were to happen to you, would your loved ones know your wishes and how to put your affairs in order? #EstatePlanning

Friends, I recently lost my prelitigation legal assistant, and I'm looking for someone to help out, initially several days a week, growing to part time full time. (We don't work Friday's). The position calls for a highly organized person to engage in gathering/ ordering med records/bills, obtaining police reports, opening and organizing files, light bookkeeping and drafting exhibit lists for demands, and general office management. A person with legal assistant experience is preferred, but a quick learner with solid office skills and experience with the public; computer programs savvy, and experience using Quick Books and the other skills noted below could qualify. A person with no legal assistant experience would need at least 2 years of experience in a high functioning office environment. The position is permanent and would start when covid restrictions are lifted in Albuquerque. Salary commensurate with experience. You must be a self starter with a pleasant, but professional personality and appearance with excellent oral and written communication skills, and high degree of computer program knowledge, and multi-tasking skills. Fluency in English and Spanish and proficiency in quickbooks is required. If you are interested, or know of anyone, please send resume and cover letter to me at: [email protected].
No phone calls please. PLEASE don't apply if you don't have experience working in a law office or similar office environment as noted above! References and recommendation letters advised!
Thanks, Mike
Good morning friends... attorneys are gearing up to learn new ways to practice social distancing while still serving our clients by using zoom and other ways of communicating with clients. In that regard it has occurred to me that people may be unaware that one of the safest ways to care for themselves, or their fragile family and friends in the event of death or disability is to have a strong Durable Power of Attorney. A POA gives legal authority and direction to another person on how to manage your affairs in the event of a temporary or permanent disability. Many documents such as POA require signature before a notary public... some other documents require a notary and eywitnesses to be physically present to witness every other person signing the document. Governor Lujan Grisham just entered an executive order allowing documents like DPOA/ WILLS/DEEDS/ TRANSFER oF DEATH DEEDS etc. to be signed, witnessed and notarized remotely... that is, all parties are present and seeing each other sign documents simultaneously, but online... of course in separate locations!... without sounding like I'm promoting a marketing scheme, rather than offering a legal service to you and your family...I'd like to offer this benefit/option here... it will take much coordination but it can be done. If you're interested in discussing your concerns, you may email me at [email protected] law.Com or leave a message on my website at "Law Office of Mike Gallegos".
I hope you continue to practice social distancing by staying home! My constant Prayers for all of you!
The court also authorized Chief Judge Janet DiFiore to explore the possibility of permitting law graduates waiting to take the bar examination or waiting for test results to practice under the supervision of licensed attorneys.
