Elder Law: Nurturing Compassionate Solutions for Seniors

​

Elder Law at its core is about embracing the challenges faced by our elders and their families with a compassionate touch. It encompasses a spectrum of issues, from aging and disability to incapacity, illness, and the intricate planning required for long-term care and nursing homes.

​

Our Elder Law practice extends its caring arms to address legal matters such as nursing home contracts, service agreements for caregivers, and property transactions. Additionally, we delve into critical areas like health insurance, home care, and long-term care policies, with a commitment to providing holistic support.

Guiding Through Medicaid Planning: Protecting Dignity and Assets

​

Medicaid planning is not just about safeguarding financial assets; it's about preserving dignity and ensuring quality care. Many are unaware that Medicare and private supplements fall short in covering the substantial costs of long-term nursing home care. The prospect of depleting a lifetime of hard-earned savings can be overwhelming.

​

Our compassionate approach includes exploring options such as long-term care insurance, carefully selecting reputable providers.

​

Navigating the Medicaid Landscape: Understanding Exemptions and Restrictions

​

Medicaid, when strategically approached, can cover the entire cost of nursing home care. We guide you through exemptions, ensuring that vital assets like your personal residence, one automobile, and necessary furnishings are safeguarded.

​

Yet, we also navigate the restrictions imposed by legislation, including an extended look-back period and limitations on the exempt value of a house. Monthly gifts may create penalty periods, and we are here to provide insight into the evolving legal landscape.

​

Empowering Through Preplanning: Adapting to Legislative Changes

​

Legislation changes can impact your long-term care path. Our recommendation is clear: adapt and readjust. We encourage preplanning, an essential step to maximize the preservation of your family's assets. We understand that each family's journey is unique, and our doors are open to answer any questions you may have about this vital aspect of the law.

​

In this realm of Elder Law, where empathy meets expertise, we extend our hand to guide you through, ensuring dignity, protection, and peace of mind every step of the way. Please don't hesitate to reach out; your concerns are our priority.
