Elder Law Services Overview
At Pfalzgraf Beinhauer & Menzies, LLP, we are committed to assisting families as they navigate the issues of providing for the care and services needed for aging loved ones.
We help families find ways to obtain the necessary services either through private service providers or through any of the multitude of government subsidized benefit programs that may be available.
Even after the drastic changes to the Medicaid qualification regulations by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2006, there are still many steps that can be taken to pass a family legacy onto the next generation while ensuring quality of care for a family member in need of long-term care services.
There are many ways that a family can plan that will legally limit the amount of resources that will have to be spent on medical care.
Depending on the actual medical needs and the setting in which the needs will be met, i.e., in home, assisted living or skilled nursing, there are a wide variety of planning tools that are available to allow eligibility for various forms of assistance.
The means by which these goals are met are often complex and specific to each family’s economic and medical situation.
If you or a loved one are faced with a medical crisis that may potentially deplete your family’s resources, contact us so that we can determine what steps should be taken in order to maximize both quality of care and asset preservation.
REMEMBER: IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO PLAN.
