Services

Elder Law Attorney
Asset Protection
An estate planning attorney, also deemed an asset protection attorney, helps clients best allocate their resources to guard against unforeseen liabilities. We focus on three main areas of asset protection: Safeguarding assets from lawsuits, shielding inheritances from creditors, divorce, and spendthrifts, and long-Term care planning.
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
At Burner Law Group P.C., we help seniors in New York with planning for long-term care, determining eligibility for government benefits, ensure legal documents such as wills, trusts and advanced directives are in place. We also help family members when guardianship proceedings are needed to ensure the health and safety of a loved one who has lost capacity.
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 Net Worth 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.
Guardianship
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 prevents 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.
Real Estate
Burner Law Group brings the same expertise and attentiveness to real estate as we have been bringing to our Trust and Estates and Elder Law practice for over 25 years. 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. Our attorneys and paralegals protect your interests and navigate unwelcome surprises with ease. If you are considering buying, selling, or leasing real estate, our firm will ensure that your transaction is handled with the utmost care and efficiency.
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.

Kim Hanna
Burner Law Group has expertly and quite professionally handled my mothers Estate planning and the ultimate sale of her house through their real estate section. Specifically, Katerina and Doreen were absolutely amazing at handling the sale of my mothers house during a rather stressful time. I would never go to anyone else. My husband and I will be using Burner Law to establish our estate planning as well. I would only recommend Burner Law Group to anyone looking to prepare their elder care and estate planning. I truly can’t thank you enough.

We have utilized the services of Burner Law Group on two occasions to prepare estate planning documents for our elder family members. Each time we were treated with respect and care, and provided advice that made us feel comfortable and secure. Communication is fast and effective and the final products suited our specific needs exactly. Our attorney, Brittni Sullivan kept us apprised of each step and was thorough and professional. We would highly recommend Burner Law Group.

Burner Law Group: We retained Burner Law Group to prepare a Trust for asset protection along with all the other necessary documents such as POA, Will, Living Will, Health Care etc. From day one, they were extremely professional. Our attorney, Brittni Sullivan, provided detailed explanations for each of the many questions we had and responded to all our requests for further information quickly and clearly. She was a pleasure to work with. If you are looking for an Elder Law Firm, we very highly recommend that you contact Burner Law Group.

Burner Law group is an excellent place to seek help when planning and taking care of an elderly parent . Their knowledge, know how, kindness and capability is beyond words. I wish I would’ve used them earlier in the preplanning state for my mother. I was beyond lucky to have worked with Brittni Sullivan , and her associates Laura Romaska and Nicole Hake . They helped me with planning an approval for community Medicaid for my mother a few years ago. These last six months, there are no words to describe the efforts, kindness and hard work they did to help me get my mother placed into a safe environment and approval for chronic Medicaid..If you are in the process of looking for a law group to help you with your needs, you probably already are feeling the emotional, financial and physical drain that can be on you. I highly recommend that you choose Burner Law to help you with whatever your needs may be and let them help guide you. The law firm is so multifaceted in so many areas to help you along while treating you with compassion, honesty and efficiency.

Best law firm ever! I cannot say enough about this wonderful firm. I have recently used the firm for a real estate closure. I have gone through many closings over the years, but have never had one go as smoothly and seamlessly as this one. Several attorneys and paralegals worked together to finish this closing so quickly and efficiently. They were always accessible and helpful. Whenever I reached out to them, they responded within the hour. Their expertise and cooperation were invaluable. They were hands down the best law firm I have used. I am also utilizing their services for management of an estate and they have been equally incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend them for any of the legal services they provide. They are the best!!

Burner Law, and in particular Melissa Doris, have been lifesavers for me in handling what, to me, was a somewhat complex estate matter. I am an attorney, myself, thought don’t practice estate or probate law and am not licensed in NY. They have done a tremendous job for my mom’s estate. I recommend without reservation.

Both Brittni Sullivan and Laura Romaszka were wonderful to work with and helped fix some issues with my Mom’s estate. They ended up coming in after the fact and help keep some of my Mom’s finances in her estate instead of all going to the government. I will always be grateful for their help in those matters.

The attorneys at Burner Law Group are not only extremely professional but they are extremely good at their expertise. They helped me get through a very challenging time with Medicaid with ease. They kept me informed every step of the way and the transition was uncomplicated and smooth. My experience was a good one from the moment I walked through the door. The receptionists are friendly and knowledgeable and every person along the way to the finish line excelled at their job. I can not say enough good about this law firm. I highly recommend them for all your needs.

7 years ago my husband and I went to a Burner Law Group Estate Planning Seminar followed by an office consultation. We had so many questions and concerns. Everyone we dealt with was excellent. We proceeded to have our Estate Planning Docs drawn up. After 7 years, things change. We contacted Nancy Burner for a review and to update our documents. Thanks to Nancy, and her entire staff, we had an amazing, stress free, professional and pleasurable experience. Every question and concern we had was addressed with knowledge and understanding. We highly recommend The Burner Law Group. Sandy Alvaro
