I have "been through the mill" and the gamut finding and working with knowledgeable, professional and non-mercenary lawyers to help my elderly parents with a myriad of unexpected legal issues. I am practically an expert now on who's who in estate planning and elder law in the great Boise area.
I have learned that these matters are a specialty; you can run through money like water AND get poor if not even downright damaging advice if you do not find the right person. In elder law, it also really helps to have a heart.
The person I dealt with at Idaho Estate Planning is Mark Wight who is the president of this firm.
I cannot speak highly enough of Mr. Wight's thoroughness (he briefly quoted law to me rather than giving an opinion about which I was left to wonder how much art and how much science I was hearing), depth of knowledge in his field of specialization plus honesty and heart. He even told me when I could write a certain letter myself!
If you have aging parents, get a lawyer YEARS ahead if you can- there is so much more than the drawing up of wills and much needs to be planned for so far in advance. This at equally important whether you fear your folks may run low on cash OR if there is an inheritance anticipated.
Do not "just talk to the family lawyer". Specialization in elder law is crucial for these matters. Mr Wight is an expert- with character- that I recommend to the highest degree possible.
