Our Services

We offer a range of services to help you navigate the complex world of elder law and special needs planning. Some of our key services include:

• Long-Term Care Insurance: Long-term care insurance can provide the financial resources to pay for care at home, or at the assisted living, or nursing home of your choice.

• Medicaid Planning: Many families are shocked to find out that the average cost of nursing home care can cost between $3,000-$8,000 per month, and that Medicare does not cover nursing home care on a long-term basis. Medicaid can be an option for those who need long-term care.

• Miller Trusts: A Miller Trust, also known as Qualified Income Trusts (QITs), can help you establish a trust that allows a person to qualify for Medicaid while still receiving income from other sources.

• Special Needs Trusts: Supplemental Needs Trusts or Special Needs Trusts are established by parents, families, and loved ones in order to establish and maintain public benefits, usually through Medicaid.

• Veterans Benefits: If you are a Veteran or a spouse of a Veteran you may qualify for Veteran Administration (VA) benefits to assist you in paying for your long-term care.

• Powers of Attorney: Powers of attorney can be essential in ensuring that your wishes are carried out in the event that you become incapacitated.

• Estate Planning for Families: Proper estate planning can help ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and that your family is protected.

• Guardianship: Guardianships are established for people who cannot care for themselves, such as individuals with acquired brain injuries or those who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
