Your state's pack. New issue every Monday. Bookmark it. I built this for the New Hampshire T&E solo who knows RSA Title LVI cold but still loses an afternoon a week tracking the moving Medicaid pieces — especially the expanded recovery that reaches joint tenancy, life estates and living trusts.
For licensed attorneys. This pack is general legal information and professional commentary for practicing attorneys — it is not legal advice, does not apply to any specific matter, and creates no attorney-client relationship. Verify every authority against the cited primary source before relying on it with a client. Published by Mike Moss, a Utah-admitted attorney, as an AI-enablement information product; it is not an offer of legal services and is not a representation that the author is admitted to practice in your jurisdiction.
Three developments I think actually matter to a New Hampshire T&E solo. Each has a read that lands on your practice specifically — and each comes with a reachable citation so you can verify it yourself before you use it with a client.
HB617 raises the RSA 480:1 homestead right to $400,000 per person (with an aggregate cap), up from $120,000, effective Jan 1, 2026.
This is a real shift in creditor and planning math for the home. Update your asset-protection and homestead-declaration advice; note the new 12-month primary-residence condition.

HB68 enacted the Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act at RSA ch. 563-D; a TODD must be recorded within 60 days of execution and before death.
Long-standing guidance that NH had no TOD deed is now stale. But because recovery is expanded, a TODD avoids probate without defeating recovery — flag the gap for clients.

Under RSA 167:14-a, the recovery estate includes property held in joint tenancy, life estates, and living trusts titled on or after July 1, 2005.
The classic life-estate-deed and joint-tenancy moves do not defeat NH recovery. Build around irrevocable structures and the look-back, not survivorship titling.

This week in New Hampshire for the T&E solo with Medicaid-planning clients: what the NH Bar Association, DHHS, the General Court, and CMS put in front of you.
The bar CLE calendar, the DHHS bulletins, the General Court bill tracker, and the federal standards all publish on different schedules. This is that sift, already done, with the link on each item.
