Elder Law
While the golden years are supposed to be filled with the joys of retirement, grandchildren and travel, they are seldomly enjoyed without various other complexities that individuals encounter as they age including deteriorating health, financial concerns and family disputes. To meet these challenges, a unique area of law – elder law has taken on greater value to millions of aging Americans and their caregivers. This area encompasses many different legal disciplines, including estate planning, business succession planning, asset protection, Medicaid planning and veterans benefits.
Guardianships
Rafferty & Redlisky, LLP concentrates in contested guardianship proceedings in Bronx, Kings, Queens, Rockland, Nassau, New York, Rockland and Westchester Counties. A guardianship petition under Article 81 of the Mental Hygiene Law is brought when a person requires some form of assistance in meeting their personal and property management needs. Most times the situation arises when an Alleged Incapacitated Person either did not have advance directives in place, such as a durable power of attorney or health care proxy, or those advance directives are insufficient or being misused by the agent.
Trusts & Estates

We file Petitions for Probate and Administration, as well as draft wills, trusts, powers of attorney, health care proxies and living wills to fully address estate planning needs.
