Practice Areas
Elder Law —
“It could never happen to me.”
As Americans age, their legal needs change. At Bryan A Lowe & Associates, our attorneys help seniors, and those who care for them, establish workable estate and long term health care plans. Often planning for an immediate or future need for long term care involves legal guidance and representation in matters of guardianship and Medicaid eligibility. Legal documents such as durable powers of attorney, health care powers of attorney, and living wills, help seniors ensure that difficult decisions can be made at critical moments.
Let our firm help you create a plan that provides you with quality health care, protection of valuable assets, and ensure that you or your family members will qualify for Medicaid if and when the need arises.
Estate Planning —
You’ve worked hard all your life. Let us help protect what you’ve earned.
Estate planning is vital for both the young and the young at heart to ensure that your final wishes are followed. Estate planning documents such as living trusts, Wills, revocable and irrevocable tax advantaged trusts, and cost-effective charitable trusts, can provide assurance that valuable assets are protected, fewer taxes are paid, and probate is avoided.
Our clients can count on Bryan A Lowe & Associates to create estate plans that facilitate the handling of taxes, wills, insurance, property and trusts when the worst happens.
When the time comes, our attorneys will provide you and your family with the help you need for the proper administration of both estates and trusts. Administration duties often include attending probate court proceedings, liquidating assets and debts, the proper distribution of assets, completing appropriate tax returns, and defending and/or prosecuting will contests

Effective estate administration requires a great deal of Probate Court knowledge and tax expertise, not only in the area of estate tax law, but of income tax law as well. We provide extremely valuable tax-saving advice, ensuring that estates are administered at the lowest tax cost that can be achieved.
