Elder Law
Often people don’t think about Medicaid or long-term care planning until they find themselves or a family member in a crisis. The Medicaid planning attorney at Timmons Law can advise you on your options related to the spending down of assets and qualification for Medicaid assistance. Medicaid is a need-based benefit that provides payment assistance with the cost of long-term care for qualifying individuals. Our Medicaid planning attorney will assist with planning for the increased cost of care for an ill spouse or family member. Medicaid qualification requires meeting the set income, asset and medical need standards.
Our elder law attorney can assist you in understanding the possibilities surrounding Medicaid assistance, qualification, completion of a resource assessment, spending-down, drafting of Income Cap Trusts, and other considerations. We can assist you in planning for your own future as well as the future of the healthy spouse and other family members.
Timmons Law attorneys also assist families with estate planning for disabled children and/or beneficiaries. Regardless of your situation, working with a Timmons Law attorney will provide assurance that you and your loved ones are well taken care of — even after you are no longer able to care for them.
