Medicaid Planning

Our law firm provides strategic Medicaid asset protection and estate planning services designed to help individuals and families preserve their assets while planning for long-term care. With Medicaid’s complex eligibility rules and strict look-back period, advance planning is essential to protect what you’ve worked hard to build.

We work closely with clients to develop personalized plans that align with Medicaid regulations and long-term goals. Our services include:

• Medicaid Asset Protection Irrevocable Trusts;
• Trust funding guidance;
• Expanded Durable General Power of Attorney;
• Coordination with other estate planning documents such as living trust, last will & testament, and healthcare directives.

Medicaid has a strict 60-month (5 year) lookback period of transactions to determine eligibility. Any assets not properly given away during this period creates the potential of penalties for the Medicaid applicant. The best way to ensure your assets will be protected for your loved ones is to plan ahead. Meet with one of our elder law attorneys today to discuss your options.
