- Your special needs children losing their benefits and their quality of life
- Getting the wrong kind of care if you become incapacitated
How We’re Different
We will make the process of estate planning as easy and painless as possible for you.
We are different because we are parents of special needs children who have gone through the process of estate planning ourselves. It was intimidating, the attorneys talked down to us, and the process wasn’t clear at all times. They also used jargon/words that you needed to have a law degree to understand. Frankly, this sucked and made us feel like we weren’t being heard. Based on our experience, we will make the process of estate planning as easy and painless as possible for you.
At McAdoo Estate Planning, LLC, we listen to our clients BEFORE recommending as plan. And then, we only recommend a plan IF it will save you and your loved ones money and time.

About Your Lawyer
Kim McAdoo
Kimberly McAdoo is a New York State licensed attorney who believes that all families deserve to thrive and that all parents deserve to have peace of mind. This is the main reason why she established McAdoo Estate Planning, LLC, with a specific focus on helping parents to preserve what they have worked so hard for so that they are remembered as the "Family Hero."
Ms. McAdoo’s passion is based on her lifepath. As the mother of a non-verbal autistic son, she has learned through experience that planning for the future is the way to gain peace for the present. This has compelled her to set-up a supplemental needs trust for her son and to gain guardianship over him to manage his affairs.
Ms. McAdoo work-ethic was instilled in her by mother and father. Born in North Carolina to a two-income family, she learned the value of hard work, consistency, and diligence.
