Why Hire an Elder Law Lawyer?
Elder law is distinct from other branches of family law, and a competent elder law attorney will have a thorough understanding of the unique factors affecting senior citizens. These cases often require a higher degree of care, compassion, and patience, as they may involve end-of-life care and treatment. It’s important to have the right attorney on your side to make the best decisions for your health, finances, and family, ensuring that your wishes are carried out before you pass.
Why Did Elder Law Develop?
In 2015, the U.S. Census reported that the U.S. had nearly 48 million people over the age of 65. This number is expected to grow to nearly 98 million by 2060. Elder law was created to address the specific challenges the elderly face as they age. These issues often require legal assistance related to financial planning and end-of-life care, making elder law services vital.
Elder Law Cases Involving Medicaid Issues
To qualify for Medicaid, you must meet strict eligibility criteria based on your income and assets. It’s essential to consult with an experienced lawyer to determine how and if you can apply for Medicaid, particularly if you need long-term care. Our law firm has extensive experience handling elder law cases that involve Medicaid-related issues.
