Why Hire an Elder Law Lawyer?
Elder law is a unique area of law that differs from other branches of family law. A skilled elder law attorney will have a thorough understanding of the factors that affect senior citizens. Additionally, elder law requires an attorney who is compassionate and patient, as these cases often involve sensitive matters such as end-of-life care and treatment. Having the right attorney by your side is essential for making the best decisions regarding your health, finances, and family before you pass.
Why Did Elder Law Develop?
In 2015, the U.S. Census recorded nearly 48 million people in the United States aged 65 or older. This number is expected to increase to nearly 98 million by 2060. Elder law was developed to address the specific legal challenges faced by the elderly as they age. These issues, which often involve financial planning and end-of-life care, require specialized legal assistance.

Medicaid eligibility is based on strict guidelines regarding income and assets. If you or a loved one may require long-term care, it’s crucial to consult with an experienced lawyer to understand how you can apply for Medicaid.
