Elder Law Attorney Services
ABOUT ELDER LAW
Elder Law involves planning for the complex health care, long-term care, and other issues facing elderly and disabled individuals and their families. Most noteworthy, studies show that we stand a 40% chance of needing long-term care at least once before we die. Therefore, everyone should take into account, that at some point residency in a nursing home or assisted living facility may be needed.
However, the substantial cost of nursing home care for an incapacitated person can wipe away a family’s savings and the inheritance planned for surviving family members. As a result, the primary alternative to privately paying the nursing home is Medicaid. Due to the need for assistance, we handle a wide range of legal matters affecting an older or disabled person. In addition to issues related to health care, we assist with long-term care planning, guardianship, retirement, Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and other important matters.
