(561) 955-8515Elder law attorneys focus on helping aging seniors or disabled adults with a variety of legal matters. These matters include planning for long term medical costs, qualifying for Medicaid, protecting assets and drafting legal documents like a living will.
Elder law attorneys handle the unique issues that older adults face in planning to age with dignity. Attorneys practicing Elder law understand how to legally protect complicated and high net worth estatesfrom rising nursing home costs. They can also help seniors qualify for benefits that contribute to paying for assisted living facilities.
They’re able to handle sensitive family issues and work with adult children to fulfil the potentially challenging needs of the senior.
Elder law attorneys help educate seniors and provide legal assistance within the following practice areas:
- Medicaid Planning
- Living Wills and Trusts
- Estate Planning
- Power of Attorney Drafting
- Long-term Health Care Planning
- Veterans Benefit Planning
- Special Needs Planning
- Guardianship
Instead of using multiple lawyers who specialize in each of these areas, elder law attorneys use their knowledge in each of these areas to advise you properly.
