6 ESSEX MEDIA GROUP SENIOR LIVING SUMMER 2018
Wondering how to protect your assets?
The Law Office of Julie Low can help
The Law Office of Julie Low practices exclusively
in estate planning and administration, elder law,
and special needs planning.
The firm designs customized, comprehensive
will-based and trust-based estate plans to meet
each client’s unique needs. Whether your goal is
to protect assets from future long-term care costs,
minimize estate taxes and administration fees,
ensure a legacy for your descendants, provide
for your needs in the event of incapacity, or protect
and provide for a family member with special
needs, the Law Office of Julie Low can design an
estate plan that meets your objectives.
Attorney Low opened her Beverly-based firm because
she had a vision for the way law should be
practiced — with a focus on the client instead of
billable hours.
She believes in creating an inviting, personable
atmosphere where clients feel comfortable discussing
very personal subjects. Attorney Low fully engages
her clients in the design process, educating
and guiding them to make informed decisions. The
end result is a comprehensive plan clients understand,
rather than a set of documents that have
little personal meaning.
The firm charges fixed prices instead of traditional
hourly rates for estate planning. Ms. Low
believes clients appreciate knowing the cost of services
up-front and the open communication such
an approach fosters.
Client meetings are centered around important
issues — not the clock — and are handled with a
touch of lightheartedness, when appropriate, "because
contemplating disability, incapacity or death
is not a delightful or pleasant experience for most."
Clients are invited to contact Julie, or a team
member, with questions, without worrying about
being billed for extra time. Daytime, as well as evening
meetings, are available by appointment.
One of the firm’s specialties is the creation of
Long-Term Care Plans to help clients navigate
the complicated regulations of Medicaid, Veterans
Benefits, and other government programs.
Because Julie is knowledgeable in planning for
both types of Medicaid (traditional nursing home
and the lesser known, but unbelievably beneficial,
community programs), she reviews her clients’ options
with an eye to all programs to ensure each
plan provides later flexibility.
In addition to being an accredited attorney with
the Veteran’s Administration, Julie is a member of
WealthCounsel, ElderCounsel, The National
Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA), ElderLaw
Answers and The Academy of Special
Needs Planners.
She graduated cum laude from Western New
England University School of Law.
In her free time, Julie volunteers with North
Shore Elder Services’ Money Management Program,
assisting local seniors with paying bills and
budgeting, and on Northeast ARC’s Human Rights
Committee.
The Law Office of Julie Low provides complimentary
workshops on the basics of Estate Planning
and Long Term Care.
In conjunction with a local Geriatric Care Manager,
Julie has also produced a free and informative
guide for navigating Long Term Care on the
North Shore.
