Are you a parent of a special needs child? Is your spouse disabled?
Then you face a unique challenge: How do you make sure they’re cared for after you are gone?
We can help you construct a plan to protect your disabled loved one’s eligibility for government benefits programs.
As a mother of a child with Special Needs, Attorney Heidi Friedman of Friedman Elder Law Department knows the emotional and financial struggles many families face.Â
Your loved one with Special Needs may be eligible for government benefits such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Medicaid, and Medicare.
These programs can assist them with the costs of housing, food and health insurance. However, many of these programs have low asset and income thresholds.
Receiving an inheritance, lawsuit settlement, or other funds may disqualify your loved one from their benefits.
Legal tools like a Special Needs Trust helps to transfer assets and allows them to be distributed in a manner that doesn’t risk a loss of benefits.
Our experienced Special Needs Planning attorneys can help you decide if a Special Needs Trust may work for your disabled loved one.
