ELDER LAW focuses on protecting an individual’s independence, dignity and control when in need of assistance due to a disability or long term care. The goal is to preserve a person’s hard-earned assets for his or her family and loved ones in addition to protecting those assets from avoidable taxes. This planning also includes the contemplation of anticipated and unanticipated health care needs. We take great pride in making sure our clients are thoroughly protected. Our practice takes a multi-generational approach in assisting to develop a comprehensive plan to optimize financial security for our clients and their families. Our experience can enlighten families about the many financial, legal and emotional issues involved with growing old. This often includes advice on medical and financial decisions, applying for Medicaid benefits, coordinating nursing home, home care or medical model day care placement when needed, and of course making sure all federal and state laws are followed. The peace of mind that results from thorough and well-considered planning is immeasurable.
