  2. Elder Law THE FIELD OF ELDER LAW IS EVER-EVOLVING TO ADDRESS THE LEGAL NEEDS OF THE AGING POPULATION. THIS BRANCH OF LAW SERVES THE NEEDS OF THE ELDERLY AND THEIR FAMILIES AS WELL AS THE DISABLED. BUT, WHAT EXACTLY IS ELDER LAW AND WHAT ALL AREAS IT COVERS?

  3. Disability/Special Needs Planning With the possibility of becoming mentally handicapped, you must get elder care information to have a disability plan in place. Without it, your assets will end up in a court-supervised guardianship or conservatorship. Special needs planning comprises the legal needs of disabled individuals. The physical and/or mental disability of these individuals can make them eligible for receiving government benefits.

  4. ESTATE PLANNING Estate planning is critical to define who will get your property after you die and who will make sure that your final wishes are carried out. This includes planning to reduce estate taxes and prevent probate as well as ensuring that your beneficiaries are safe from wrong decisions and external influence. Find the right home care providers or estate planning attorneys.

  5. PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL ELDER ABUSE With age, people become prone to elder abuse, both personal and financial like kidnapping, outright theft of personal belongings, and wrongfully coercing to hand out their assets or change their Testament, Revocable Living Trust, and Last Will. That’s why a specialized area of litigation help recover their assets. Eldercare Matters

  6. Long-Term Care Planning (Medicaid Planning and Veterans Benefits) Need help with Medicaid? Get assets transferring and re-positioning correctly to qualify for Medicaid nursing home benefits. Veterans benefits encompass addressing the long-term health care needs of veterans of the U.S. armed forces. Make long-term care planning to ensure that your medical needs are met without spending much.

  7. Probate help settle a deceased person’s estate. If a person had a Revocable Living Trust, it needs to be settled like probate but without the supervision of a court. When looking for senior care information, you will find that probate does not necessarily depend on the title of a deceased person’s assets at the time of death.
