Elder Law Planning Services for Your Future
Elder Law services consist of plans that’ll keep you in control of your finances, health care decisions, property, and assets for as long as you want. At Auld Brothers, we are elder law attorneys who are familiar with state and federal laws and regulations that impact your long-term plans. We’ll guide you through the laws and regulations while explaining your long-term options so you can make the best decision for your future.
Long-Term Care Cost Options
Whether you’re planning for long-term at-home care or care at a nursing home, there are monthly expenses that you’ll have to cover. However, those monthly expenses shouldn’t cost all the resources you have, so we’re here to help you prevent that from occurring.
There are several long-term care payments available, and we’ll educate you on all available options to determine which is the best decision.
- Establish an annuity (long-term contracts between you and your insurance company)
- Medicaid assistance (depends on your eligibility)
- Veterans’ Administration “Aid and Attendance” (available for qualifying veterans)
- Long-term care insurance options
Protecting Your Assets from Healthcare Expenses
A primary concern many people have about long-term care planning is having to sell their assets to pay their medical bills. The good news is that there are many Elder Law plans available. We can create a plan that’ll protect your assets and guarantee they are passed on to your beneficiaries.
- Contracts
- Deeds
- Family agreements
- Irrevocable Burial Trusts
- Irrevocable Trusts
- Personal care agreements
- Spouse annuity
- Special Needs Trusts
- Wills
- Taking proactive steps to avoid Probate after your passing
Are You Prepared if Circumstances Change Rapidly?
If you don’t anticipate needing long-term care, medical situations can still change quickly, and you might even need short-term care protection. Having plans in place will help to ensure your wishes are still followed in an unexpected event. For example, if you suddenly became injured and unable to make your own medical decisions, would your family make the choices you would want? Having your plans in a legal document will ensure that your wishes are followed even during unexpected events.
