Elder Law Attorneys Help Your Medicaid Planning

Seeking Assistance

Do you need an attorney for Medicaid planning?  The prudent answer would be "yes."  The social worker at your mother's nursing home assigned to assist in preparing a Medicaid application for your mother knows a lot about the program, but maybe not the particular rule that applies in your case or the newest changes in the law.  In addition, by the time you're applying for Medicaid, you may have missed out on significant planning opportunities.

The best bet is to consult with an elder law attorney who can advise you on your entire situation.  At the very least, the price of the consultation should purchase some peace of mind.  And what you learn can mean significant financial savings or better care for you or your loved one.  This may involve the use of trusts, transfers of assets, purchase of annuities or increased income and resource allowances for the healthy spouse.

How We Can Help

Levandowski and Darpino specializes in elder law and elder care planning.  Let us help you to:

  • Plan in advance to limit the devastating expense of long-term care.
  • Protect your home and life savings.
  • Preserve the financial security of your spouse and dependents.
  • Legally transfer assets to children and grandchildren.
  • Minimize private payments of nursing home costs.
  • Maximize public benefits from Medicare, Medicaid, and other programs.
  • File the complicated Medicaid application.

Medicaid Planning

A number of basic strategies and tools are typically used in Medicaid planning.  To determine what's best for your individual situation, talk with one of our Elder Law attorneys.  Home visits and phone consultations are available.  If you wait, it may be too late to take some of the steps available to preserve your assets.
