Frequently Asked Questions

What is Elder Law, and how can it help me or my loved one?

Elder Law focuses on legal issues affecting older adults, including estate planning, Medicaid eligibility, long-term care, guardianship, and asset protection. It helps seniors preserve their savings, avoid costly mistakes, and plan for future medical and financial needs.

Can I qualify for Medicaid if I have assets or savings?

Yes, but you may need a Medicaid Asset Protection Plan. Medicaid has strict income and asset limits, but with proper planning, such as creating irrevocable trusts or converting countable assets, you can legally qualify for benefits without spending everything you own.

Is it too late to plan if my loved one is already in a nursing home?

Not at all. This is called Medicaid crisis planning. Even if someone is already in care, we can often protect significant assets and still secure Medicaid eligibility through legal strategies like spousal refusal, spend-downs, and gifting with penalty mitigation.

Will Medicaid take my home after I pass away?

Medicaid’s Estate Recovery Program may try to recover costs from your estate, including your home. However, there are legal ways to protect your primary residence, such as placing it in a properly structured trust or transferring it under certain exemptions.

How far in advance should I start Medicaid planning?

Ideally, at least five years before needing long-term care, due to Medicaid’s 5-year “look-back” period. Early planning gives you more options to protect your assets and avoid penalties, but even last-minute strategies can be effective in many cases.

What documents should I have in place for Elder Law planning?

Essential documents include:
- Durable Power of Attorney
- Health Care Proxy / Medical Power of Attorney
- Living Will
- Last Will and Testament
- Revocable or Irrevocable Trust
These tools ensure your wishes are followed and allow others to legally act on your behalf if needed.

What's the difference between a will and a trust?

A will goes into effect after you pass and must go through probate, which can be public and time-consuming. A trust takes effect immediately and allows assets to pass privately, often avoiding probate. Trusts can also be used to plan for Medicaid eligibility and protect assets.
