Our firm assists elderly clients with many of the issues related to the need for long term care, Medicaid Planning, or Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits. We advise our clients on the best way to access the programs available to them, while protecting their assets as much as possible. The long term illness of a parent or spouse can be among the most difficult experiences for a family. The cost of long term care can be in some cases devastating. Our firm can provide answers for these complex issues. Our firm focuses on helping families access programs which help finance nursing home and assisted living care. We help families qualify for Medicaid benefits which can provide much needed funds to pay for nursing home care and protecting a spouse at home, while preserving family assets . In addition, many families are not aware that for many veterans there is money available to pay for assisted living and even in home care. Partner John McNair, an accredited attorney with the veterans administration, can help veterans and their spouses qualify for Veterans Administration Aid and Attendance benefits which help pay for these types of services. These veterans have served our country honorably and our firm feels it is a privilege to help them obtain these benefits and preserve and protect their assets. It is not true that you must already be suffering a financial hardship to access these programs. Our firm will carefully evaluate your situation to help you and your loved one determine what benefits may be available and how best to maximize those benefits. We will be with you every step of the way, making sure your and your loved ones’ interests are represented.
