Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in New York

Re: Compensation for Mothers care

you have hit the problem head on. How do you determine what the value of services provided to a relative.

Itis a difficut situation when parents age.

Perhaps if you sell the property that your mother owns, you can spend down the proceeds in accordance with social security law, so that your services can be reimbursed when she is alive.

If she is put in a nursing home, most, if not all of the proceeds will be attached to pay for her care.

While she is outside the nursing home you have much more flexability.

Your wife can be paid now.

Seek the services of a lawyer. If you would like to retain this office, we can go into greater detail with more facts, so that I can better direct you.
