FAQS
What exactly does an elder law attorney do?
Elder law attorneys help families plan for aging, long-term care, estate planning, asset protection, and legal decision-making. We focus on keeping you in control, protecting your assets, and ensuring your wishes are honored.
Do I need to be wealthy to benefit from estate planning or elder law services?
Absolutely not. Most of our clients are middle-class families looking to protect their homes, qualify for benefits, and make sure everything is in order for their loved ones. Planning early can actually save you thousands down the line.
Can I still qualify for Medicaid if I own a home or have savings?
Yes — with the right planning. Even if you have income or assets, we use legal tools like trusts and exemptions to help you qualify for long-term care Medicaid without losing everything.
What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
A will distributes your assets after death, usually through probate. A trust can avoid probate and provide more control, privacy, and protection — especially useful for long-term care and family planning.
