ELDER LAW - Healthcare and Long-Term Care Planning
Elder law deals with the issues faced by the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population, the elderly. Seniors today are more active and live longer than ever before, which means they face a variety of new issues not addressed by earlier generations.
Now that seniors are living longer, there are more issues about their care that have to be included in estate planning, such as plans for housing, future medical care, and what to do if the person is in need of care and has become incapable of making their own decisions.
My goal is to ensure that you or your loved one receives the best care possible, addressing all legal and financial concerns. I work together with clients to develop a plan that will appoint people to act on your behalf if you are unable to make your own decisions, provide quick and easy distributions of assets, and provide you peace of mind knowing that you have protected yourself and your loved ones.
We do not file Medicaid applications, but can refer you to someone close to you.
