Bernard A. Krooks Elected President of
Estate Planning Council of Westchester County
June 17, 2010 (White Plains, New York) Bernard A. Krooks, managing partner of law firm Littman Krooks LLP, has been elected
president of the Estate Planning Council of Westchester County. The council was established in 1967 to
improve understanding of the concepts and nuances of estate planning in order
to better serve clients. Members include
attorneys, CPAs, trust officers, chartered life underwriters, and certified
financial planners.
"This is a great honor," notes Krooks, "and an opportunity
to contribute to changes taking place in the field. Baby boomers, parents of
children with special needs--such as those with autism--and military veterans
have different questions and expectations from previous generations. Estate
planning professionals can play an important role in shaping more fulfilling
retirements and in providing financial security to loved ones."
Bernard Krooks has been recognized as one of the "Best
Lawyers in America"
and as a "New York Super Lawyer." He is
a former president of NAELA (National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys), a former
president of the Special Needs Alliance, and a past chair of the Elder Law
Section of the New York State Bar Association.
Littman Krooks LLP offers legal services in several areas
of law, including elder law, estate planning, veterans' benefits, special
needs planning, special education advocacy, and corporate and
securities. The firm's offices are located at 399 Knollwood Road,
White Plains, New York; 655 Third Avenue, New York,
New York; and 300 Westage Business
Center Drive, Fishkill, New York. For more information about Littman
