Planning for the future may feel overwhelming, but it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself and your loved ones.
While none of us can predict exactly what lies ahead, preparing for the possibility of long-term care helps ensure you stay in control of your choices, finances, and quality of life. With nearly 70% of adults over 65 likely to need some form of care — and one in five needing it for more than five years — taking action now sets you up for greater independence and peace of mind later.
At Pierro, Connor, Strauss, LLC, our experienced New York long-term care lawyers created the 2025 Long-Term Care Planning Guide to make this process easier, clearer, and more empowering for you.
Why Long-Term Care Planning Matters
Long-term care planning is about creating the life you want — one where your independence, choices, and financial security are fully protected as you age.
When you plan ahead, you can:
- Stay in control of where and how you live
- Safeguard your retirement savings for the things that matter most
- Help provide peace of mind for your loved ones
Without a clear plan, unexpected events can limit your options, drain your finances, and leave important decisions in others’ hands.
Taking steps now helps you stay empowered, protect your legacy, and give yourself and your family the peace of mind you all deserve.
