Elder Law

Elder Law encompasses estate planning for the elderly person and anticipates protecting assets from long-term care costs and Medicaid spend down. It can also mean avoiding the expensive and time-consuming guardianship process. Most importantly it may assist in finding good care within the community – and acquiring it. It may also include help in paying for this care through private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, or VA Benefits.

It may also include support for the Sandwich Generation who are those busy with jobs and raising children trying to do what’s best for Mom and Dad – and often at a distance. Therefore education and a local presence will be essential to a smoother transition.
