Lewis Timothy Lawyer

Family Law

Guardianship
For some members of our society, legal protection may be necessary even after they have entered adulthood. These individuals may have been injured in an accident, continue to suffer from an incapacitating physical illness or psychological disorder or have some other condition that prevents them from caring for themselves. In these cases, a guardianship may be established.

Business and Corporate Law

Limited Liability Companies

Employment Law

Severance Agreement
Advised on a personal case regarding severance pay and has been hired by several of my clients who are very satisfied with his services.

Property Law

Real Estate Litigation
Ann is also appointed by the Court as a receiver in both judicial dissolutions and real estate matters and as a referee in foreclosure proceedings. She has been an arbitrator in Small Claims Court in New York County since 1995 and is also an arbitrator for the New York Stock Exchange and National Association of Securities Dealers, now FINRA.

Health Law

Personal Injury
Yes, you should still establish a Special Needs Trust to protect your disabled beneficiaries from potential creditors. For example, if your disabled beneficiaries are ever sued in a personal injury action, the assets in the trust would not be available to the plaintiffs. Furthermore, because the funds in the Special Needs Trust are not countable as available assets for purposes of determining government benefit eligibility, more of your money can be used for those supplemental expenditures that will allow your disabled beneficiary to enjoy a higher quality of life. Otherwise, much of your assets will be used to pay for private care benefits that are extremely expensive and can drain even significant sums of money over time.
Medicaid Planning
Medicaid planning is legal. Elder law attorneys work to protect clients’ assets within the bounds of the law. Congress allows citizens to qualify for Medicaid after meeting certain requirements, and those requirements could be changed if Congress felt they were being abused. Medicaid planning is not any more illegal than planning to avoid taxes.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Whether the matter is to object a will, accounting, or are defending a will or accounting which has been contested, we have vast experience in achieving success by offering aggressive representation in Estate Litigation matters should they arise.
Wills
A Will, also referred to as a Last Will and Testament, is primarily designed to transfer your assets according to your wishes. A Will also typically names someone to be your Executor, who is the person you designate to carry out your instructions. If you have minor children, you should also name a Guardian as well as alternate Guardians in case your first choice is unable or unwilling to serve. A Will only becomes effective upon your death, and after it is admitted by a probate court.
Trusts
While Special Needs Trusts are typically established by parents for their disabled children, any third party can establish a Special Needs Trust for the benefit of a disabled beneficiary. It is important to seek the assistance of competent counsel when creating a Special Needs Trust because a poorly drafted Trust can easily be subject to “invasion” by the government agencies that provide benefits. Our law firm has the experience and the expertise to establish effective Special Needs Trusts for anyone who wishes to provide for a disabled beneficiary.
Power of Attorney
There are generally two types of durable powers of attorney: a present Durable Power of Attorney in which the power is immediately transferred to your attorney in fact; and a springing or future Durable Power of Attorney that only comes into effect upon your subsequent disability as determined by your doctor. When you appoint another individual to make financial decisions on your behalf, that individual is called an agent or attorney in fact. Most people choose their spouse or domestic partner, a trusted family member, or friend.
Probate

Finance Law

Foreclosure
Tax Law
