The Lifetime Love and Protection Trust (The Lifetime Parenting Trust)
Oct 01, 2009
A number of times I have had clients tell me that they love their adult children, but they have a child who has chosen a destructive lifestyle. Sometimes it’s a mental health issue, or sometimes it’s just a matter of making very bad choices. These parents do not want to abandon any of their children—but […]
The Art of Being… 98
Sep 23, 2009
“What in the world is that man doing?!” I asked attorney Zach Hesselbaum. It was a perfect summer afternoon and we had just left a client’s home at Alden of Waterford. We could see a man creating something with homemade tools in an undeveloped area across from the residences. We just had to get to […]
Choose Care, Not Curtains
Sep 16, 2009
Many of our elder law clients live at Countryside Care Center in Aurora, Illinois. We hear from our clients and their families that great care is provided for both private pay and Medicaid clients. When we are asked by families to recommend a skilled care facility, we often say, “Choose the care, not the curtains!” […]
Forever Santa
Sep 09, 2009
“How do you grow up to become Santa Claus?” I innocently asked the white-bearded man. Laying a finger aside of his nose, he looked at me gently and told his story.
Santa Knows Autism Spectrum Disorders
Sep 02, 2009
I will never take Santa Claus for granted again! Most of us grew up with Santa Claus as a beloved Christmas icon. Maybe you have one or two special Santa memories that you cherish. Did you take your kids to visit Santa and then tuck the photo away as a life-long Christmas treasure? I sure […]
Goodbye, Dad
Aug 26, 2009
My father, Richard Law, has died, but we celebrate his life! Those of us who recently gathered at the hospital for many days and then the funeral home represent a ‘blended family’ of lineal descendants, adopted children, and step-family. It has been amazing to experience the common expression of love and care from each one […]

We Can’t All Be Heroes: The Richard Reimer Honor Flight
Aug 12, 2009
Will Rogers once said, “We can’t all be heroes. Some of us get to stand on the curb and clap as they go by.” I am proud to say that our client Richard Reimer is an American hero. He served his country in the United States Navy between 1943 and 1946 in the Pacific Theater […]
Mr. Transformation: Shawn Hunt
Aug 06, 2009
I have lost 115 pounds of scaled weight and gained a large amount of muscle. I have gone from a 48” to a 38” waist. My health has been greatly improved, and my overall sense of well being has been restored. I really can’t put into words the feeling of accomplishment that I feel right now. This has been one of my greatest challenges and also one of my greatest victories.
Our Reviews
My wife and I had our first child three years ago. That’s when we decided to set up a trust, should anything happen to either of us. We reached out to Zach Hesselbaum to help us out. He was very thorough and professional throughout the whole process. Zach went above and beyond to make sure that we understood every detail of setting it up and he did an excellent job. We recently had our second child a few months ago. With the new baby, he helped us make the necessary revisions to the trust. Zach made this process great for us! I would definitely recommend using him for any of your estate planning needs!
