Givens Legal Advisors uses legal documents and strategies that may allow you to be covered by Medicaid or Veterans benefits when facing the need for long-term care. Applying for Medicaid can be stressful, time-consuming, and may drain your financial resources. The application process involves strict guidelines, accurate documentation, and asset restructuring. We act as your personal representative and work with the Medicaid District Office to handle all aspects of the application process.
Many seniors and their families believe long-term care insurance is the only way to pay for extended health care services or protect their inheritance for their children and loved ones. Also, some seniors mistakenly believe that having a will or revocable living trust is all that is needed to protect their inheritance from long-term care expenses.
A more robust estate plan, including a properly designed Medicaid Plan, can create a long-term care strategy to provide care and protect their savings. It is better to do Medicaid Planning sooner rather than later, allowing you to preserve more of your estate from being spent down to cover assisted living or nursing home costs.
Givens Legal Advisors is committed to helping seniors and their families plan for and avoid the financial ruin associated with the high cost of long-term care. If you are elderly, or if you have a parent or loved one who is elderly, contact us today to learn what Medicaid Planning options are available to you.
