Medicaid nursing home and home health care can destroy an estate that took a lifetime to build. Fortunately, there are legal ways to protect financial assets from the Medicaid costs of nursing home or long-term medical care. At The Elder Law Firm, we believe it is a matter of dignity to help people pass their life’s work down to their children, and heirs.

Providing health care for the elderly,
while legally preserving family assets

The Elder Law Firm, provides legal estate planning and Medicaid planning services for people who are facing long-term care expenses, either for care in nursing homes, or in their own homes. We offer a variety of financial services and instruments that help people keep their estate in their own name, rather than turning it over to the government to pay for care, or in probate court, at the time of their death.

We consider part of our responsibility to help people
retain the dignity that comes with passing on their
hard-earned estate to their loved ones.

If you are faced with a decision about long-term medical care, for yourself or a loved one, call us at the estate planning and Medicaid planning attorneys’ offices of The Elder Law Firm. We have watched too many of our friends and neighbors struggle with the choice between taking care of their parents, or taking care of the family estate. It doesn’t have to be that way.

We believe that it is part of our legal responsibility
to preserve the dignity that comes with passing on
a legacy of hard work to one’s children. 

We practice in many areas of estate planning law. We can help you with something as common as a will, or as complex as probate protection and Medicaid asset preservation planning.

Call us at the Elder Law Firm  to discuss ways to plan your estate, and preserve your assets from Medicaid costs.
