Celebrate Independence Day by Securing Your
Legacy
Dear Subscriber,
As we approach this year’s Independence Day, it's the perfect time to contemplate our cherished American values of freedom, liberty, and property ownership. These values are more than just ideals—they are a roadmap to securing our future and the legacy we leave behind.
In a
thought-provoking article, Greg McIntyre, an esteemed attorney specializing in estate planning and elder law at McIntyre Elder Law, shares his perspective on how these values intersect with elder law. With a family history of defending these values and his own service in the Navy, Greg McIntyre has an insightful take on the importance of these traditional American values.
In his practice, McIntyre helps clients maintain their independence by assisting them in making informed decisions about their future. He explains how vital it is to proactively put in place general durable powers of attorney and healthcare powers of attorney. This forward-thinking
approach allows you to decide in advance who you trust to handle your financial and healthcare affairs if you were to become unable to make your own decisions.
Furthermore, McIntyre highlights the role of wills, trusts, and property rights in our lives. The ability to pass on property after we die is fundamental to our Constitution and the foundation of who we are as Americans. He encourages us to consider how what we've accumulated over our lifetime can benefit our family and leave a lasting legacy.
Planning for the future isn't just about enjoying our golden years—it's also about navigating potential pitfalls, such as the high cost of long-term care. McIntyre Elder Law can help you stay in control with tools like trusts and ladybird deeds, which can protect your home or safeguard your retirement.
This Independence Day, let's take a moment to appreciate our freedom to make decisions about our life and property. These are fundamental American values that we should
celebrate and continue to uphold in our lives. If you're interested in exercising more of your independence and rights through legal and estate planning, McIntyre Elder Law is offering a free consultation at various locations across western North Carolina.
