Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP is delighted to announce that Anthony J. Enea, Esq., managing partner, will be honored at the Westchester County Bar Foundation's 13th Annual Benefit and Silent Auction on Tuesday, October 29, 2024 at Fenway Golf Club in Scarsdale.

The evening will feature a cocktail reception, hors d'oeuvres, buffet dinner, dessert, and a silent auction. Proceeds from the Benefit will support the Foundation’s Fellowship Program.

The Westchester County Bar Foundation is the charitable arm of the Westchester County Bar Association and is dedicated to improving the administration of justice and fostering a better public understanding of the law.

Anthony J. Enea is a past president of the Foundation, having served in that capacity for eight years. During his time as a board member and president, the Foundation has financed a two-year public interest law fellowship and, under his leadership, is now able to continue the program for the near future. The Fellow provides legal services to the county's underserved and indigent residents under the auspices of a not-for-profit legal services provider in Westchester. The fellowship also provides training to a new lawyer who otherwise might not have the opportunity to do public interest work.

The U.S. Administration on Aging estimates that 70% of Americans over the age of 65 will require long-term care services, such as home care, assisted living, or skilled nursing. The major question is always how to pay for this care, the cost of which can be astronomical.

While one could exhaust their assets until they qualify for Medicaid, a better alternative is to transfer assets to an Irrevocable Medicaid Asset Protection Trust (MAPT) when one is healthy enough to ensure the passage of the infamous “five-year lookback period.” Another option is to purchase Long Term Care Insurance (LTCI), which is expensive if not purchased when one is younger. A traditional LTCI policy will pay for all or a portion of the cost of an aide at home, a stay at an assisted living residence (or memory care facility for those with Alzheimer’s / Dementia), or the daily rate at a skilled nursing facility (SNF).
