Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Second Edition March 1994. 237 Pages Indexed. Previous owner's name Juanita McLeod is on the front endpaper. Elder law is a relatively new area of the law that focuses on the needs of senior citizens. Many national books have been written on wills and trusts, the right to die, planning for nursing home care and other topics. Much of the information included in this book also applies to younger people. The book provides a detailed summary of New Mexico law that relates to seniors, their families and life planning. The book should provide enough information for people to decide what documents or planning they need or want. The book should also help people feel knowledgeable and organized if they seek the help of an attorney. While the book attempts to answer questions about New Mexico law and provide accurate information, the book is not a how-to-do-everything-yourself book. Anyone is free to prepare documents for his or her own use, but New Mexico law prohibits people who are not lawyers from preparing documents for others. Because every person's legal needs vary there are few fill-in-the-blank legal documents. Elder law issues are sometimes quite complex, and easy answers do not always surface. Individuals and their attorneys must reflect on death and dying, illness, family relationships, aging and other issues. Information provided in this book reflects laws and regulations in effect in New Mexico as of 2000. The reader should use this book as a general guide only.
