Why Hire an Elder Law Lawyer?
Elder law is a distinct branch of law, different from other areas of family law. A knowledgeable elder law attorney will have a solid understanding of the specific factors that affect senior citizens. Additionally, elder law requires an attorney who is compassionate, patient, and experienced with the sensitive nature of cases that often involve end-of-life care and treatment. Having the right attorney by your side is crucial to determining what is best for your health, finances, and family before you pass.
Why Did Elder Law Develop?
According to the U.S. Census, in 2015, there were nearly 48 million people in the U.S. aged 65 or older. This number is projected to nearly double, reaching 98 million by 2060. Elder law was created to address the unique challenges faced by the elderly as they age. Many of these issues require specialized legal assistance, particularly related to financial planning and end-of-life care.
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 requires long-term care, it’s essential to consult with an experienced lawyer to understand if and how you can apply for Medicaid. Our law firm has extensive experience with elder law cases involving Medicaid issues and is ready to help families in Friendswood navigate this complex process.
