Elder Law

Protecting Florida's Elderly and Their Families

Watching a parent grow older and watching a parent go older can be difficult, especially as the time comes to make difficult financial and medical decisions. An experienced elder law attorney can help you establish long term goals and objectives, estate planning decisions, decisions about health and long-term care and a myriad of other important family related issues.

The Law Office of Nancy Toman Baldwin is available to guide families through difficult legal challenges. Attorney Baldwin has more than 15 years of elder law experience. Contact the firm to schedule a time to discuss your concerns.

Insightful, Compassionate Legal Guidance

Attorney Baldwin is available to help with:

• Advocate for victims of fraud 
• The transition between employment and retirement
• Effective estate planning
• Medicare
• Long term care alternatives
• Medicaid planning

She is always available to clients and takes the time to listen to their needs. Every family is different, and it is important to Ms. Baldwin to identify the appropriate legal actions to address each clients' unique needs.

Estate Planning for the Elderly

Waiting too long to plan can open the door to claims of incompetency or fraud. The Law Office of Nancy Toman Baldwin works with older individuals to develop estate plans that will hold up in the future. Ms. Baldwin will meet with you and your family to identify your objectives and determine the right tools to meet them.

Your estate plan could include:

• Comprehensive long term goals
• Last will and testament
• Financial and medical powers of attorney
• Pre-need guardianship
• Health care surrogate
• Living will, which is also known as an advance health care directive

Your lawyer should have a complete understanding of your priorities and create a plan that protects the people and things that are important to you. Without a strong estate plan, Florida's statutory plan will apply.

The firm has spent the better part of two decades helping families with elder law planning. Call 352-505-2599 or contact attorney Baldwin online to schedule an appointment at the firm's Gainesville office.
