Areas of Practice
Report
Not sure whether you or your loved one will qualify for Medicaid? Schedule a Medicaid Assessment with us to obtain the answers to what can be done to protect your assets and minimize the costs of long-term care. We can assist you with asset protection planning, including protection for the spouse at home, Medicaid eligibility and an application for Medicaid benefits.
Medicaid Planning
Report
The period of time one may be ineligible for Medicaid assistance can vary depending on what is given away, to whom, and when. It may be less than 5 years and sometimes there is no disqualification at all. Yes, there is a 5-year "lookback" period for most asset transfers under the Medicaid rules. Which means Medicaid will look back at all transfers of property, including transfers for less than fair market value.
Wills & Trusts
Report
Your Last Will and Testament is a legal document that becomes effective upon your death and directs how your property will be distributed. It is important to have a Will for several reasons. First, it allows you to name an Executor or Personal Representative, who will be responsible for making sure your assets are distributed to your designated heirs.
Power of Attorney
Report
A power of attorney gives a person you designate the authority to make financial decisions, such as signing checks to pay bills, handling tax returns, and selling a home. Normally, a durable power of attorney for financial matters is effective immediately upon execution. Sometimes, however, a person is reluctant to delegate broad powers to anyone while he or she is still competent.
