Elder Law Issues We Handle

The needs of the elderly and the disabled differ considerably from younger adults. These specialized needs often combine many practice areas and call for specific services from a legal professional who understands the emotional and physical challenges that may accompany them.

We offer assistance in all matters relating to the care and future of you or your elder loved one, including:

• Estate planning, to ensure that all wishes related to your estate are documented and honored and to help plan for future financial needs as they relate to assisted living, nursing home care, and more.
• Asset protection, to avoid the negative consequences of incorrect planning as it pertains to Medicare, Medicaid, and the exorbitant expenses of medical or nursing home care.
• Advance directives/living wills, to ensure that your desires are followed at end-of-life medical care or when you are unable to express your wishes. Advance directives are legal documents specifying the type of medical interventions you wish to have or not have.
• Powers of attorney, in which you designate someone you trust to make financial, legal, or life decisions when you are unable to.
• Adult guardianships, in which someone is appointed by the court to make financial, medical, and personal decisions for an adult who is unable to and who has not been protected by other legal means.
• Elder abuse and/or neglect, in which you legally hold others responsible for the medical, financial, emotional, or sexual abuse of your loved one, whether in a nursing home setting or other arrangement.
• Nursing home abuse, in which you make a legal claim against the facility that has harmed your loved one while under its care.
