Why Work with an Elder Law Attorney

Elder law attorneys focus on the unique legal and financial needs of older adults, including the high cost of long-term care. They also assist families in qualifying for Medicaid benefits while preserving their assets in the process—instead of losing them to the Medicaid spend-down.

Crisis Medicaid Planning

Crisis Medicaid planning helps families legally and strategically reposition assets to qualify for Medicaid benefits that can help cover long-term care costs, often in a nursing home setting. With the right guidance, this planning can significantly reduce out-of-pocket care expenses.

What is a Medicaid Compliant Annuity?

A Medicaid Compliant Annuity (MCA) is a popular spend-down tool in crisis Medicaid planning. It converts assets into a stream of income, effectively eliminating the assets from Medicaid's consideration. When paired with the right long-term care plan, an MCA can make a meaningful financial difference for families.
