ALBANESE LAW, LLC
A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO
ENSURE PEACE OF MIND.

Matthew P. Albanese concentrates his practice in the areas of elder law, estate planning, mental health law and disability law. Having a unique combination of public service and private-sector experience, he recognizes the many challenges facing seniors and their families in an unpredictable economy.

“With the implementation of the Uniform
Probate Code, the practice of elder
law and estate planning has become
even more specialized,” says Albanese.
“Most of my clients are looking for more
than just guidance. They’re seeking
a personalized, inclusive approach to
maintaining their standard of living.”
He quickly dispels the notion that
probate matters are reserved for only
a wealthy demographic. “Anyone
with assets is a candidate for estate
planning,” he says. A staunch advocate
for seniors, Albanese understands that
when dealing with someone’s health
and financial well-being, it’s essential
to be able to listen with compassion.
“The legal component must be carefully
tailored to each situation,” he says.

Albanese is experienced in handling
guardianships, conservatorships
and Medicaid planning for seniors
concerned with long-term care.

He has written articles on estate planning and frequently holds seminars for civic and professional organizations. He has testified before the Massachusetts Legislature and executive agencies on matters affecting the quality of life for the aging and disabled population.
