At The Charles Law Offices, our Clearwater probate and estate planning attorney is dedicated to providing our clients with exceptional representation that allows them to be comfortable knowing that all aspects of their matter have been completely dealt with in the most professional and thorough manner.

We are available to provide skilled representation and dedicated service to clients in the following practice areas:

  • Probate, estate and trust administration — It can be crucial that you have effective legal guidance if you are responsible for the administration of an estate or trust. There are numerous legal requirements that must be met and there are beneficiaries, heirs and creditors who will be invested in how you conduct the administration or probate.
  • Elder law and Medicaid benefits — The cost of long-term care can pose a very serious threat to an estate. We can help you plan for the possibility of long-term care and qualifying for Medicaid to help defray those costs.
  • Veterans benefits — VA Aid and Attendance can be a substantial benefit for those who have served in the military during wartime. We will work to qualify you for all available VA benefits and any other government benefits that you may be eligible for.
  • Estate planning — Effective estate planning allows you to do more than simply decide how your estate will benefit your loved ones. It allows you to prepare for a wide range of eventualities that can include the need for long-term care.
  • Trusts — Trusts are powerful tools for preserving the substance of the assets that comprise an estate from unnecessary diminishing factors such as estate taxes and spendthrift habits. Effective use of trusts can help you provide for the care and financial stability of your loved ones far into the future.
