Reasons Why

Without a Durable Power of Attorney, no one can sign legal or financial documents for you if you are unable to because of illness, accident or absence. This means bills can be left unpaid, dependents may go without access to assets, or your accounts could be frozen.

Setting up a Revocable Trust is one way to protect assets. Read an article here to find out more about living trusts, the difference between a living trust and a will, the types of trusts and much more.

Without a Living Will and Health Care Surrogate designation, decisions concerning your body and your life could be made by the court, government agency or medical professionals, rather than a trusted person you choose. Without a proper expression of your wishes, the hospital may artificially keep you alive, or there may be legal battles over how you should be treated.

Everyone 18 and older should have properly executed documents. Without them, the person’s wishes and notes may be legally meaningless, resulting in costly and difficult legal battles.

See what our clients have to say.

We went to Amy for planning for a parent. We were informed of options that we had no idea were available to us. She took care of all of our needs including ensuring the parent was well informed on what was taking place. The services provided by her and her staff made a difficult time a lot easier and enabled a smooth transition.

I worked with Amy to have estate documents done for me, and to have advance directives done for my college age kids. Amy and her staff made the process easy from beginning to end. They took time to explain each document to us and to help us make decisions about how they should be filed out. They even went out of their way to accommodate us during COVID. I highly recommend Amy Dow Law!

Amy is a professional through and through! She is technically proficient, kind and very detail oriented. She spends a lot with you to make sure you thoroughly understand the documents and can make a well informed decision. I was really impressed with her attention to detail and her knowledge of the law!! I highly recommend her. She will make sure you have an A#1 experience!

Amy Dow’s combination of degrees in Counseling and Law made the difference for me in contacting her to do my Estate Planning. She’s kind, compassionate and detail oriented. Her expertise checks every box for me.

Amy Dow and her associate Carolyn were able to help my husband and I during an extremely difficult and stressful time. They were very patient with all my many questions and made both our Medicaid Planning and Estate Planning so clear, and we are so grateful for her expertise, kindness and care. They couldn't have been more helpful and were my one light at the end of the dark tunnel. I recommend them with absolutely no hesitation.

I was very happy to have Amy Dow complete my estate planning documents. She is very knowledgeable and made the whole process easy and understandable. I also greatly appreciated her patience and sensitivity to my concerns and needs. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to use her again for any legal counsel.

We came to Amy as she was recommended to our family as an expert in elder care law. She quickly assessed our family's needs and drew up Power of Attorneys, a will, and a Personal Service Contract. Amy is caring and on top of things. She also has resources regarding applying for VA and medicaid benefits. I would definitely recommend Amy to anyone who needs a good elder care lawyer.

Amy did a great job helping my sister and I update our mother's estate paperwork. She was very informative and up to date on current advanced directives

Amy Dow is the definition of what an attorney should be. Thorough and concise dotting all the "I"'s and crossing all the "T"'s. Her knowledge of the current statutes, etc. regarding estate planning enabled us to expand our plan to be more inclusive and meaningful. She also has the ability to explain all the legal jargon in simple English. I highly recommend Amy.

Love Love Love Amy & her Team! Elder care planning, Legalities & care are such a hard puzzle to figure out... Amy & Team have been a God send! Very Ethical &!Fair! Highly Highly Recommend!

Amy knows her stuff! She is kind and understands the needs of her elder clients, present and potentially in the future. You can tell that she truly is looking out for their best interests. If you want it done correctly, thoroughly, and with compassion, I believe Amy is the right attorney.

I wish Google had a 6 star option for those really, really special businesses out there! We hired Amy Dow Law, to do my parent’s estate planning under Florida law. Amy explained everything to us in simple non-lawyer terms, ensuring we understood everything. She was so thorough and patient, taking into account my father’s Alzheimers condition.

When our son turned 18, we realized that, regardless of the fact that we still finance his every move, we would be left in the dark if, G-d forbid, we needed to talk to a doctor or a hospital if he were incapacitated. We went to Amy and she drew up several important papers for us, including a power of attorney and an advanced care directive. She explained everything clearly and in terms that we (including our son) understood.

I came to Amy rather "green" in elder law seeking assistance with getting my mom's affairs in line. Amy was very receptive, warm and attentive and I immediately felt confident in her. She is full of knowledge, organized and pleasant...and explained things to me in "layman's terms" which was so very refreshing. That, coupled with her compassion and patience, was a set-up for a very successful experience.

Wonderful experience getting estate planning documents updated.

Margaret Keller

Amy Dow is really about helping to inform the families of the elderly about what they need to know, the steps required and what to expect as you delve into care options in Florida. This is an awfully intricate process and I found that Amy and Carolyn were informed, well connected in this arena and also well thought of as they came recommended from different sources.

Amy Dow is great at what she does and enjoys explaining what the law is about to those of us who now need some assistance in preparing legal documents for our golden years and for our future heirs. I highly recommend her and you will see what I mean when she sits down with you to offer her guidance and advice.

I met Amy when she spoke at an at Emunah Women’s meeting about the importance of estate planning. It was particularly important, she said, for northerners who now live in Florida to update their documents to reflect the specific Florida laws. As a New Yorker who had recently declared Florida residency, this rang a bell. When the process was over, we both had a feeling of relief that we would now be properly prepared for the future.

Amy is very knowledgeable and makes things easy to understand. I would recommend her.
