Living trust

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Medicaid does not "take" your home.  You need to be able to pay for the care that you are receiving.  If you are in a skilled nursing facilty, and are not likely to leave there, then the home is sold and the proceeds are used to pay for your care as the care is being received.  No one "takes" the home.  If your assets run out, and you still need care, then Medicaid will be available to pay for the care.  You should not worry about protecting your assets as much as you  should worry about having enough assets to provide the care you need in the setting that you want.

Will a life insurance policy taken out on me by my son be considered part of my estate.

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
No - it would not be part of your estate because your son will be the owner of the policy.  However, in New Jersey, the person buying and paying for the policy has to have an insurable interest in the person they want to insure.  In some states you can buy and insurance policy on another person with out any relationship or interest, but in New Jersey there has to be an insurable interest.

Do I have to give money from the estate away?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Legally, if he put you as "payable on death" beneficiary then the money is yours. If you give the nephews anything, it will be gifts subject to the usual rules on gifts.
