Elder Law IssuesFleming & Curti, PLC as a Future FiduciaryAt Fleming & Curti, PLC, we are sometimes named as a future fiduciary. That is, you might have named us as successor trustee, to take over on your death (or disability). Or perhaps you’ve named us as agents on your power of attorney.
When we are scheduled to be a future fiduciary, what role do we take in the meantime? We do want to keep in contact. We want to know if we need to step in. Or perhaps the time for our involvement is growing near, and we want to keep tabs on how you’re doin...

Kathy, our principal legal assistant for decades, was the longest-term employee in our law office. Well, not counting co-founder Robert Fleming. But even Robert only had a couple years on her. The firm started in 1994, and Kathy started working for us in 1997.
Her prior legal experience had included similar work for a long-term employer who became a judge. We were glad for his...

Two Pint PLC096 PLC Outcomes & Early NumeracyProfessional Learning Communities, or PLCs, provide a collegial network for educators to reflect on and improve their practice. We look at an evaluation of a pre-packaged PLC program that did not improve PLCs in schools, and wonder how we can support educators at the building level instead.
Later, we look at how very early math is learned by children. They experience the snowball effect, meaning it is far more important that learners have experiences with math regardless of the specific types of math they may experience. Math is good, m’kay.

Fleming & Curti, PLC, had a decades-long relationship with Time Matters, starting with the DOS version in about 1992. It was once the leading case management program for law firms. We used it extensively, and in fact were recognized as national leaders in the use of the program. But it stopped adapting in the past decade or so, and it became obvious that it was time to move on.
A relative newcomer in the legal technology world, Clio is cloud-based, creative...
2024-08-1209 minElder Law IssuesThe Importance of Home Visits by FiduciariesAt Fleming & Curti, PLC, we often act as fiduciary. We might be a trustee, or a guardian or conservator, or an agent. In all of those roles, we try to make regular home visits.
Why do we feel strongly about home visits? Because that’s the best way to get to know our beneficiaries, principals and protected individuals. Regular visits are actually required in cases of guardianship, but we think the same idea applies to other fiduciary roles, as well. And we encourage other fiduciaries to adopt the same approach.
Listen to our discussion about th...

One of the occupational hazards for estate planners is that it’s hard to just have a happy birthday celebration. We have to pay attention to the side effects of reaching a certain age. In this case, the “certain age” is 73 — just one year away and requiring some planning. That’s especially true since the required beginning date (when RMDs are mandatory) is actually a whole year long (sort of).

We usually include that in our health care power of attorney form.
A recent article in the Washington Post addressed the issue. It suggested that everyone over age 65 should consider signing an advance directive for driving authority. Our response: poppycock! Everyone, of every age, should make a decision now about who they trust to tell them that when to stop driving. We have. Will you?

There are two obvious reasons for the growth in hospice programs in the past half-century:
The kind of care available, focusing on palliative care, is attractive to many patients at the end of life, and
Medicare funding has made hospice available to far more patients.
But do patients (and their family members) find the care comforting and helpful? In our experience, the answer is almost always a resounding “yes!”

The “limit” is just on gifts that escape any reporting requirement at all. If you make a gift over the $15,000 figure, you do have to file a gift tax return — but that doesn’t mean you have to pay any tax. Nor does the recipient have to pay tax on what they received...
2020-12-0612 minElder Law IssuesCoronavirus Update for Fleming & Curti, PLCArizona has recently become one of America’s hotspots for COVID-19. We are all worried about what will happen next. At Fleming & Curti, PLC, we don’t have any crystal ball. But in this coronavirus update, we tell you what we’re experiencing in our office, what steps we have taken to protect you (and us), and what effect the pandemic has had on our practice.
We’re using masks, gloves, disinfectants and social distancing — even at work. We urge you to do the same. Our response is evolving, but our goal remains the same: to provide safe (and...
2020-07-2611 minElder Law IssuesNew York Medicaid Planning vs. ArizonaNew York Medicaid rules don’t ordinarily concern us at Fleming & Curti, PLC. After all, we are a Tucson elder law attorney firm. We don’t practice in New York at all.
But when we have an opportunity to discuss state-to-state differences with one of the leading elder law practitioners in the nation, we take it. This week we talk with good friend and extraordinary elder law attorney Lawrence Davidow. He has been a leader in the field for over thirty years. In fact, Lawrence is a former President (and a Fellow) of the National Academy of Elde...
2020-07-1211 minElder Law IssuesTom Curti’s Practice MemoriesTom Curti has a lot of practice memories. Tom retired from Fleming & Curti, PLC — and the practice of law — last summer. He had a 43-year career in the practice. More than half of that was at Fleming & Curti, PLC, but that is not all he did in those years.
Recently Tom came back into the office to talk about retirement — and to reminisce about his years of practice. He can tell good stories, and he shared a few of them with us.
2020-06-0714 minElder Law IssuesTom’s RetirementTom’s retirement. What does an estate planning lawyer learn from advising others about his own retirement planning?
Tom Curti, founding partner of Fleming & Curti, PLC, retired just one year ago. At the time Tom was a 44-year lawyer. The Fleming & Curti partnership had been in place for more than a quarter century. For all of that time, Tom focused on estate planning. He was, in fact, certified as an Estate & Trust specialist by the State Bar of Arizona.
So when an Estate & Trust specialist plans to retire, what do they think about in advance? An...
2020-05-2411 minElder Law IssuesCOVID-19 Update for Fleming & Curti, PLCLike you, we are trying to stay ahead of the developing pandemic. As we explain in this COVID-19 update, we want to continue to provide services to our clients, trust beneficiaries and wards. Some of those services are essential; all of them are important.
At the same time, we do not want to put anyone (in our office, in our client base or in the wider community) at risk. We are adapting as knowledge and rules change.
As we have described before, the process in our office is evolving. We do not doubt that there...
2020-03-2309 minElder Law IssuesCOVID-19 and Fleming & Curti, PLCPublic and private offices all across the country are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Law offices are no different. But at Fleming & Curti, PLC, we are a little bit different. We have some additional considerations to cope with in deciding how to respond.

Our main message: we’re watching this closely, and our response is likely to ch...

2020-02-0907 minElder Law IssuesHow We Set Our Fiduciary FeesAt Fleming & Curti, PLC, we sometimes act as trustee, personal representative, agent under a power of attorney, or conservator. We charge a fee for those roles, of course. Anyone considering us should understand how we set our fiduciary fees.
In this podcast episode, we talk about our fiduciary fees and how we determine an appropriate charge. We hope to be transparent in our fee setting, and want to make sure clients, family members and others understand what our fiduciary work is likely to cost.

2019-09-0810 minElder Law IssuesFleming & Curti as FiduciaryThe last in our series of podcasts on selecting a fiduciary. Should you consider our firm, Fleming & Curti, as fiduciary?
We started this cycle with a general discussion: what does “fiduciary” mean, anyway? And how do you select a successor trustee, personal representative or agent for your powers of attorney? If you don’t think family members are the best choice (or you don’t want to burden them), what professional fiduciary options are available?
At Fleming & Curti, PLC, we occasionally act as fiduciary for our estate planning clients. We also act as fiduciary in other se...
2019-08-1116 minElder Law IssuesWe Explain Gifts and Gift Tax RulesEveryone seems to know about gifts and gift tax rules. The thing is, “everyone” tends to be wrong.
In this podcast episode, we explain the basics of gifts and gift tax liability. Do you think that there is a rule limiting how much money or property you can give away? There isn’t. Do you think that you will pay a tax on gifts? You won’t — unless you make really huge gifts.
You probably realize that there is a $15,000 limit on how much each person can give to each other person in a calendar year. You...
2019-07-1407 minElder Law IssuesDifferent Types of Special Needs TrustsThere are different types of special needs trusts. That should not be surprising — but the effect sometimes is. Besides that, the differences can generate plenty of confusion.
Host Robert Fleming and guest Elizabeth Noble Rollings Friman, partners in the Tucson elder law firm of Fleming & Curti, PLC, discuss the differences and some of the effects. Join us for the discussion.
2019-05-1313 minElder Law IssuesArizona UTMA AccountsIn our Elder Law Issues newsletter this week, we described a bankruptcy court case involving a Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA) account. Arizona has also adopted the uniform law, and Arizona UTMA accounts would likely be treated in the same way.
But, more importantly, when would someone want to set up an Arizona UTMA account? Should they always use a trust, instead? What are the benefits — and risks — associated with an UTMA account?
Those are some of the questions we address in our weekly podcast. Join Fleming & Curti, PLC, partners Robert B. Fleming and Eliz...
2019-04-0107 minElder Law IssuesBeneficiary Designations — Part of Your Estate PlanFor your estate planning to work, you need to coordinate your beneficiary designations. Did you name the right beneficiaries on your life insurance, your IRAs and retirement plans, and your bank and brokerage accounts? Did you know that you can also name beneficiaries for your real estate (at least in Arizona) and your vehicles?
Beneficiary designations are a key part of your estate planning. Partners Elizabeth Noble Rollings Friman and Robert B. Fleming discuss the importance of beneficiary designation planning — and a recent Fleming & Curti, PLC, newsletter on the topic.

Join Robert B. Fleming and new partner Elizabeth Noble Rollings Friman as they discuss the new developments — and the direction of Fleming & Curti, PLC in the wake of the changes.
