At the Baker Law Group, PC, our attorneys bring considerable experience to individuals and business owners across the Boston metropolitan area. With offices in Hingham, Holliston, North Easton and Plymouth, we strive to provide the highest levels of personal service and attention to every client. We understand that every estate is unique, and take the time to learn the details of your financial situation, as well as your goals, so that we can craft an estate plan that -accomplishes your specific objectives.
We provide seniors and their families with elder law services ranging from estate, asset protection and long term care planning, to MassHealth nursing home eligibility, to powers of attorney.
The federal and Massachusetts laws and regulations governing taxes, Medicare, Medicaid, (known as MassHealth in Massachusetts), Social Security, trusts, veteran’s benefits, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and care at home are complex.
We provide complete estate planning services to those with moderate estates — below the federal and state estate tax exemption amounts — as well as advanced estate planning services to high net worth individuals.
Our estate planning attorneys work closely with our clients to help them select the best way to own and manage their property while alive and, at death, leave property to their intended beneficiaries – spouses, children, family members and charities.
We work with families, trustees, executors and other fiduciaries to offer a complete range of probate, tax and trust services to administer an estate, when a family member dies.
The administration of an estate can be very complex because it often involves several different bodies of law, including property, probate and tax.
We work with Massachusetts entrepreneurs to develop strategies that consider the important tax and asset protection issues when forming a business or planning for its succession.
As your Massachusetts business attorneys, we will help you as you start a new business with its entity formation and incorporation. If you have an existing business, we can assist you and advise you on succession planning.
Michael Baker is a very calm individual that always makes you feel comfortable in the planning process. He takes the time explaining and breaking down (in layman’s terms) what can often be complex legal, strategic and tactical options.
