What They Say About Us
Your attorney can evaluate your financial situation, health status and preferred care options to anticipate your future long-term care requirements.
As we age, it can become more difficult to care for ourselves. Eventually, we may no longer be able to live independently due to requiring help with daily activities like dressing, bathing and eating.
This type of personalized care, whether we receive it at home or in an assisted-living facility or nursing home, can be expensive. Comprehensive long-term care planning can mitigate the costs and alleviate the financial burden on individuals and their loved ones.
This type of specialized care planning encompasses various legal aspects. If you are in New York, an experienced elder law attorney from Ettinger Law Firm can help you create a targeted plan that meets your unique needs and gives you peace of mind.
Key focus areas can include:
Your attorney can evaluate your financial situation, health status and preferred care options to anticipate your future long-term care requirements.
Elder law attorneys will assist with the complex process of applying for Medicaid and other government programs and serve as your advocate during eligibility and benefit payment disputes.
An experienced lawyer can help you manage the complicated process of structuring your assets to maintain eligibility for Medicaid while keeping as many of your assets as possible.
Your Ettinger Law Firm lawyer can prepare the necessary documents for designating an individual to make medical and financial decisions on your behalf if you are incapacitated.
Long-term care insurance can help cover costs like nursing home or home health care services. A care planning attorney can assist you in determining the most appropriate insurance policies for your situation.
You can trust your long-term care planning attorney to create a document that explains your end-of-life medical treatment preferences.
Lawyers can help establish trusts to protect assets from the cost of long-term care and control the distribution of these funds to your heirs when the time comes.
