Why Hire an Elder Law Lawyer?
Elder law is distinct from other areas of family law. A skilled elder law attorney will have a deep understanding of the unique challenges that senior citizens face. In addition, an elder law attorney brings the care, compassion, and patience required in these cases, as they often involve end-of-life care and decisions. It is crucial to have the right attorney by your side to determine what is best for your health, finances, and family before you pass.
Why Did Elder Law Develop?
In 2015, the U.S. Census recorded that the United States had nearly 48 million people over the age of 65. This number is projected to grow to nearly 98 million by 2060. Elder law was developed to address the specific concerns the elderly face as they age. These issues often require detailed legal assistance, especially as they relate to financial planning and end-of-life care.
Elder Law Cases Involving Medicaid Issues
To qualify for Medicaid, individuals must meet strict eligibility guidelines based on their income and assets. It is advisable to consult with an experienced attorney to determine how to apply for Medicaid, especially if you will need long-term care. Our law firm has extensive experience in handling elder law cases involving Medicaid issues.
