Boston Massachusetts Medicaid Planning Lawyer

Many clients have worked their entire lives and have accumulated assets to enjoy in their retirement. However, many individuals do not realize the cost of privately paying for long-term health care is extremely high and an unforeseen medical crisis could quickly wipe out any retirement assets in a matter of a few months or years leaving you, your spouse and your loved ones with nothing left. In order to avoid the high costs of long-term and nursing home care costs that can ruin a family’s financial well-being, each individual should establish a solid estate plan strategy.

I will work with you to develop a comprehensive Medicaid estate plan that fits with your goals. The rules regarding eligibility for Medicaid benefits are complicated and ever-changing. The timing of your application is extremely important and can mean the difference between having to spend down most, if not all, of your assets and hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings.

For these reasons, the most important step in planning for Medicaid eligibility is to speak with an experienced elder law attorney before taking any other steps.

I can help preserve your assets from long-term care costs allowing you to leave them for future generations of your family.

  • Transfer assets
