Older Americans today are facing increasingly complex challenges. Laws and regulations affecting the elderly have grown in number and complexity. Decisions about future personal, financial, legal and health care needs are difficult, but necessary.

Vanarelli & Li, LLC has developed a significant expertise in the field of Elder Law, a legal specialty focusing on the special needs and legal problems of the elderly, the disabled and their families.
Americans are living longer than they did in years past, including those with disabilities.

Estate Planning is important, no matter what the size of your estate may be. Through estate planning, you ensure that your assets will go to your intended beneficiaries. You also may save money on taxes, court costs and attorneys fees, and prevent squabbling among your heirs and financial confusion after your death. You can also avoid probate. In addition, you can protect your estate assets against your possible future mental or physical incapacity and the catastrophic costs of long-term medical and nursing care.
You have the right to have an attorney represent you in your Social Security case. Statistics have shown that claimants represented by attorneys have been successful more often than those without attorney representation. Not all attorneys practice before the Social Security Administration. You will do best to find an attorney familiar with the maze of Social Security regulations and the unusual Social Security procedures.
Divorce Mediation is an alternative to fighting in court with your spouse through attorneys. Instead of court, you and your spouse meet together in a private and confidential environment, with New Jersey and New York attorney-mediator Donald D. Vanarelli, who serves as your neutral and impartial mediation professional.
Mediation is a process by which an impartial third party, called a mediator, facilitates communication between parties in conflict. The mediator has no power to make decisions for the parties.
