Michael E Fiffik
I help people take care of their families. I have extensive experience with all types of estate planning including wills, trusts, financial and medical powers of attorney. I also engage in digital asset estate planning because so many of our assets are online or in the cloud these days.
I help my clients protect their assets from nursing home costs. The best time to plan for nursing home costs is in advance. I also engage in crisis Medicaid planning. If you have a loved one who is facing a long stay in a nursing home, I can protect assets of the spouse at home while accelerating the patient's eligibility for longterm care medicaid benefits.
I help administer probate estates and trusts. If you've been named as an executor or trustee, I can help you understand your duties and help carry them out efficiently and in compliance with all applicable laws.
I represent beneficiaries in will contests and claims of executor misconduct. Probate litigation matters are usually fraught with intense emotions, often pitting family members against each other during times of grief. When so much is at stake, it’s critical to find an experienced probate attorney you can trust to act in your best interest while handling your case with sensitivity and compassion,

Beneficiary Form Boo-Boos
Many assets pass by beneficiary designation — which is the ability to fill out a form with the financial company holding the asset and name who will inherit the asset upon your death. While naming a beneficiary can be an easy way to ensure your loved ones will receive assets directly, you may be surprised at how easy it is to make an expensive mistake with your beneficiary designations
Digital Asset and Crypto Estate Planning
Digital Assets are almost always overlooked in the estate planning process. The average American has 150 online accounts. Digital assets are the thousands of files on your phone, tablet and computer. Every account to log into social media, to pay bills, to subscribe to services, or even to shop, is part of your digital assets. Failing to have a plan for your digital assets in the event of incapacity and death leaves your loved ones with the overwhelming task of not only finding which accounts
