At the law firm of Leonard F. Berg, Attorney at Law, we are proud to provide individual service to each of our clients. Each client has their unique financial, family, medical and emotional circumstances, all which is considered in developing a plan for that person. It is not enough to draft a set of documents. It is also important to help the client understand the nature and purpose of those documents. Helping people solve their problems brings our staff satisfaction. It allows our attorney to say "I really like being a lawyer." Through transitions planning, our aim is to relieve people's fears about their future. Often these fears stem from financial insecurity. While it is true that we probably cannot give financial security itself, we can allay their fears about it by giving information about appropriate housing and other necessities if they become disabled or enter their retirement years. We can also create a plan to pass their hard-earned assets on to their families when they die, and avoid being forced out of their homes if a spouse must go into a nursing home. By providing community resources assistance and help planning for the disabled, our practice serves much like a disability and elder-issues "clearinghouse" for the community. We integrate all areas of the law and the community issues that affect the elderly and the disabled throughout the East Alton area. In our thirty years of practice, we have kept up with the programs of governmental agencies and non-profit organizations that are designed to assist people but sometimes need a little "push" to get things right. Our lawyer knows and works cooperatively with community leaders to get things done for people who may not have found a way to do so. When you or someone you know needs assistance with an elder law problem or help with a disabled person, you can count on our office to help you out. Contact us to find out more about how we can help.
