Elder Law: What does this mean?

Elder law helps older adults and their families understand and choose the best planning options for their unique needs. The goal is to protect your money and make sure it's available to pay for your care while you're still living. It can also include helping you qualify for government programs that help cover long-term care costs.​

​

Common Elder Law tools and strategies include:

​

• Applying for Medicaid 

• Accessing Veterans benefits

• Creating an expanded durable power of attorney

• Drafting specialized wills

• Setting up irrevocable asset protection trusts
   

Each of these tools can affect your ability to receive certain government benefits, so it's important to understand how they work together.
