Updating Your Will With An Institutionalized Spouse
Buffalo estate planning lawyer Robert Friedman discusses how to update your will if you have an institutionalized spouse to best protect your assets in this educational video.
If one’s husband or wife is in a nursing home and receiving Medicaid, consulting with an attorney about updating one’s will can offer protection later on. Disinheriting a spouse in a nursing home can prevent assets from being paid to the nursing home in the event that one dies before the spouse.
