Why Hire an Elder Law Lawyer?
Elder law differs from other branches of family law. A knowledgeable elder law attorney will have a deep understanding of the factors that affect senior citizens. In addition, elder law cases often require a lawyer who is experienced, compassionate, and patient, as they frequently involve end-of-life care and complex treatment decisions. It is crucial to have the right attorney by your side to ensure that your health, finances, and family are well taken care of before you pass.
Why Did Elder Law Develop?
According to the U.S. Census, in 2015, the U.S. had nearly 48 million people aged 65 or older, a number expected to grow to almost 98 million by 2060. Elder law was created to specifically address the unique challenges faced by the elderly as they age. These issues often involve financial planning and end-of-life care, requiring legal assistance tailored to the needs of senior citizens.
Elder Law Cases Involving Medicaid
To qualify for Medicaid, strict guidelines based on income and assets must be met. If you or a loved one may need long-term care, it’s important to consult with an experienced lawyer who can help you navigate the Medicaid application process. Our law firm has extensive experience in handling elder law cases related to Medicaid issues and can help families in Ellis County understand their options.
