WILLS & TRUSTS
ADMINISTRATION
After we pass away, we want to be sure that all our objectives are fulfilled. The Ward Arcuri Law Firm offers trust administration for both large and small estates to address these objectives. We will ensure that your loved ones are taken care according to your wishes.
MEDICAID & ASSET
PROTECTION PLANNING
The Ward Arcuri Law Firm also can handle Medicaid planning needs. The rising cost of long term care has made planning ahead necessary for most seniors and their families. At the Ward Arcuri Law Firm, we make this process as simple as possible using the process we have developed, along with Medicaid planning strategies we use in the Medicaid application process to get our clients’ approval for Medicaid on a consistent and timely basis.
We are proud to have Robert J. Malpezzi, former Director of the Medicaid Recovery Unit in Oneida County for over 15 years, as a key member of our team. Robert brings over 23 years of experience to our firm, and has been with us since 2011. His many strengths include attention to detail, unsurpassed expertise in Medicaid law and a genuine concern in assuring a positive result for our clients.
