For many middle-income families in Queens, building a nest egg is the result of decades of hard work. Yet, a single unforeseen health crisis can threaten to wipe it all away.

The Asset Protection Problem for Queens Middle-Income Families
The core of the asset protection problem lies in a lack of proactive planning. According to data from Marketreportsworld, only 34% of U.S. adults currently have a legally valid will, which means a staggering 66% lack formal estate planning documents. This leaves their assets exposed and their family’s future uncertain.
