Estate Planning & Elder Law
Learn about personalized estate plans and strategies for managing long-term care.
Estate Planning
Estate planning is not limited to the very elderly or the very wealthy. Estate planning is about taking care of children and other dependent family members, planning out personal and financial affairs in case of incapacity, minimizing the potential for legal action, expenses, taxes, invasions of privacy and family discord, and maximizing what is left behind for loved ones. Attorney LoCascio-King provides comprehensive estate planning that is grounded in a thorough understanding of each client’s unique situations. Each plan is personalized and focuses on giving the client peace of mind of knowing that final wishes will be carried out, financial and business matters will be handled, and loved one will be provided for in the event of death or disability.
Estate Planning services include:
- Prepare last will & testaments, powers of attorney, living wills and advance healthcare directives;

Caitlin is not only knowledgeable and experienced in the field of elder law, but also was invaluable in helping my siblings and I navigate the ever evolving and challenging path of caring for our elderly parents. She demonstrated empathy, compassion and patience in meeting with them to discuss difficult legal scenarios and made herself available to us as our situation changed. I am so thankful to have found a caring and responsive professional to guide us in this journey!

Choosing an Elder Law attorney can be very challenging. I highly recommend Caitlin LoCascio-King. Caitlin can answer any and all questions you may have..even those you never thought about. She is very professional and easy to talk with. There is no pressure and you can progress at your own pace and time table. Lastly, her fee is very reasonable. I have recommended her to my friends looking for the same service that I was.

Caitlin LoCascio King is everything you could want for an Estate Attorney. She immediately puts you at ease, especially when discussing sometimes very difficult end of life decisions. She was professional, while being compassionate and supportive helping me through a difficult year.
She and her team, Luanne, are well versed in the world of wills, estates and trusts. She took the time to listen to what I wanted so my final wishes will be taken care of. She is patient and doesn’t rush you through the process. I can not recommend Caitlin more, she is the best!
