Lewis Johs’s attorneys have continuously helped our clients find that balance between what is best for their family both financially and emotionally. Through our trusts and estates practice group, Lewis Johs has developed estate plans ranging from the simple to the most complex. We prepare wills, living wills, powers of attorney and health care proxies for many of our clients. We also prepare all necessary documents to enable transfer of wealth among several generations of family members while minimizing the effect of transfer and estate taxes. We regularly administer trusts and estates, acting as legal advisors to corporate and individual fiduciaries.

We also litigate contested Surrogate's matters including Probate Contests and Contested Estate and Trust Accountings.

Our Elder Law Practice encompasses the full gamut of Medicaid planning designed for asset protection.

The Trusts and Estates Department is comprised of Managing Partner Robert J. Avallone, Senior Counsel Robert J. Cimino, Of Counsel Raymond M. Loew, Of Counsel John J. Halleron III, Senior Counsel Robert D'Angelillo, Associate Rebecca K. Devlin and Paralegal Janet MacLachlan.
