Welcome

The Law Offices of George L. Bischof, PLLC helps families and individuals in New York and Connecticut prepare wills, trusts, health care proxies, and powers of attorney.  We also assist with estates in probate or intestacy.  In addition, we offer planning for same-sex couples, life insurance trusts, pet trusts and special needs trusts.

Having a plan is not just prudent – it is essential, especially if you want:

•    To preserve a greater portion of your assets to pass onto future generations

•    To protect your assets from frivolous lawsuits

•    To save money, time and headaches with legally-binding documentation that will pass probate

•    The peace of mind of knowing that your planning will help protect your loved ones

By making careful estate planning decisions through a will, durable power of attorney, living will/ health care proxy, or other legally-binding documents, you can be assured that your wishes will be carried out the way you desire.

If you’re ready to take the next step to protect your assets and your family, contact the Law Offices of George L. Bischof, PLLC to learn how you can get started: 212.867.9120.    

 

George is an excellent trusts-and-estates attorney and has helped me and my wife Suzanne navigate the rather tricky waters around setting up a will properly. He is an expert in working with other professionals (such as insurance agents and accountants) to craft a plan to fold in life insurance policies so that they come out of your estate, setting up bypass trusts, Crummy trusts, Qtip trusts and others to minimize tax hits and maximize what is left to your heirs, and developing long-term planning strategies to keep everything on track as things (inevitably) change. Personally, he's easy to work with, has a great sense of humour, and is intelligent but not overbearing - all great qualities to have in an attorney!
