Services

Elder Law Attorney
Asset Protection
Representing clients in Suffolk County and throughout Long Island with sophisticated Asset Protection Strategies. More and more people are using the legal system to deprive others of their life’s work. Hundreds of thousands of lawsuits are filed in New York every year, many of which are frivolous or settled for sums greater than the actual liability.
Business Succession Planning
No company can survive without an able owner, executive, or shareholder at the helm. In the event of a key member’s sudden death, illness, or retirement, businesses are often left scrambling to recover lost assets and find a replacement. Large corporations and small businesses alike can avoid a tumultuous transition by creating a succession plan with a knowledgeable attorney.
Elder Law/Medicaid Planning
The high cost of long-term care in New York has made planning a critically important issue for most middle class seniors and their families. In fact, most seniors will likely require some form of long-term care. Sadly, many of them are unprepared for the significant financial burdens it places on their family’s hard earned savings. Financial devastation looms large for a family facing ongoing care at a rate of $10,000 or more per month.
Estate Planning
While nobody wants to think about death or disability, establishing an estate plan is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones. Proper estate planning not only puts you in charge of your finances, it can also spare your loved ones of the expense, delay and frustration associated with managing your affairs when you pass away or become disabled.
Estate Planning for High Networth Individuals
You’ve worked hard your whole life to provide for your family and make your loved ones more secure. Without advanced estate planning strategies, much of the significant assets you have accumulated may end up with the IRS and state taxing authorities. Our firm regularly assists affluent families with such sophisticated planning strategies as Family Limited Partnerships or Limited Liability Companies, Personal Residence Trusts,Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts and a wide range of charitable gifting techniques to reduce Federal Estate Taxes, Gift Taxes and Generation Skipping Transfer Taxes.
Guardianships
For some members of our society, legal protection may be necessary even after they have entered adulthood. These individuals may have been injured in an accident, continue to suffer from an incapacitating physical illness or psychological disorder, or have some other condition that prSeminars them from caring for themselves. In these cases, a guardianship may be established.
Probate & Estate Administration
When a loved one passes away, his or her estate often goes through a court-managed process called probate or estate administration where the assets of the deceased are managed and distributed. If your loved-one owned his or her assets through a well drafted and properly funded living trust, it is likely that no court-managed administration is necessary, though the successor trustee needs to administer the distribution of the deceased’s assets.
Special Needs Planning
If you currently provide care for a child or loved one with special needs (such as mental or physical disabilities), you must have contemplated with concern about what may happen to them when you are no longer able to provide and care for them.
Attorney
Real Estate
Our attorneys work closely with clients throughout the entire real estate transfer process from the initial contract, to negotiations and the final closing. Having the right attorney by your side can make all the difference when complications arise.

My mother and I went to Britt Burner to update our Wills, Power of Attorney and other documents that were over 20 years old. Britt was very professional, knowledgeable and patient in answering all our questions, ensuring we understood all our documents. I was especially heartened by her compassion and kindness when interacting with my elderly Mother. The Support Staff also impressed me and were very professional, respectful and helpful. I highly recommend the Burner Law Group for all your Estate Planning and Elder Law matters.

I was referred to Gina Bitsimis regarding an undecipherable irrevocable trust issue. Gina got back to me asap, we scheduled a consult and took me through the document with incredible knowlege, empathy, patience and care. She basically talked me off a ledge and assuaged my fears that it could turn into a messy litigation!

Burner Law Group provided me and my aunt with excellent service, and showed real compassion with regards to our circumstances. They also exhibited patience and understanding as I ran into some administrative snafus near the end of our work together, for which I am quite grateful. I would definitely recommend them and, should I need additional legal consultation or representation in the future, would definitely seek to employ their services again. Thank you Burner Law for your help and service!

I love interacting with the women of Burner Law Group. Nancy is a terrific listener, and is really responsive to the needs of her clients. I feel grateful to have worked with Nicole Armata, a wonderful human being who is tireless in following through on the many details that the law so often requires. Much like the mythology of the Amazon women, the members of the Burner Law Group are a force to be reckoned with–strong, smart, and no doubt ferocious when needed. It’s great to have a law team with which I feel so comfortable and confident.

Britt Burner and Michal Lipshitz are truly experts in the field of elder law and the many challenges one faces in planning for the care of elderly family members. They were immediatley responsive to the crisis my family found itself facing, and helped us tackle each step of caring for our elders. When I have a question about how to resolve a care-related or financial problem, they respond and intervene quickly and professionally. More over, they are compassionate and understanding. Burner Law Group was recommeneded to me by a friend and I am eternally grateful for their help during this difficult time.

My mother and I first came to Michal at BLG in August 2020 to review an existing estate plan that was outdated and incomplete. From our initial zoom meeting it was clear that Michal is dedicated, she is kind, she is intelligent, she is experienced, and she is highly knowledgeable about estate planning. Michal and her team are also well organized, efficient and prompt which are all crucial traits to working together virtually during a pandemic. Most notably, Michal continues to go above and beyond to ensure my mothers questions are answered and that she has a full understanding of new topics and concepts. Excellent, and would highly recommend!
