The cost of long-term care can have overwhelming financial consequences for a family. Our attorneys can explain the Medicaid “spend down” requirement, the Medicaid application process and recommend Medicaid approved financial planning to help minimize the financial impact of long-term care. We provide tailored guidance and planning that is unique to each client’s situation. Making the proper financial arrangements now can give you and your family peace of mind knowing that you have done all that can be done to protect your family’s assets while avoiding improper financial decisions that could lead to Medicaid disqualification.
Protecting Yourself and Your Assets
While our attorneys would be pleased to speak to an individual over the telephone to discuss general matters at no charge, frequently it is helpful for the individual or family to meet with us for a consultation that includes a complete review of their present estate plan, future needs and goals. Our attorneys will tell you if they feel that you existing estate planning documents are satisfactory to save you the expense of drafting new estate planning documents if it is not necessary.
Estate Planning
We can also work with you to develop an Estate Plan that may include wills, financial powers of attorney, advance care directives (formerly known as living wills and health care powers of attorney). In some situations, we may recommend a revocable, an irrevocable trust or a transfer on death deed. After you pass, we are here to assist your family with tax preparation, trust administration and probate administration.
