Long Island Elder Care Attorneys
Taking the proper steps to plan for the care of an aging loved one can save a family a great deal of heartache. So many families are unaware of the medical assistance and Medicaid planning options available to them. At the offices of Abbate & Nohavicka LLP, Attorneys at Law, in White Plains, we strive to educate our clients on the nuances of Medicaid planning, so that together with their families and medical professionals, they can plan appropriately for their own future medical needs. Contact our firm to discuss your individual needs with an elder law attorney.
Many of our clients are concerned that the "five year look back," or penalty period on transfer of assets, will rob them of the assets they worked so hard to build for the future of their families and the education of their grandchildren. We can help you with Medicaid planning using available trusts and appropriate estate planning to preserve your income and your assets. You can retain more of your income than is generally understood while still enrolling in a Medicaid benefit plan. Using spend-down trusts or income trusts, we can help you preserve your assets.
We want to assist our clients in remaining in the comfort of their homes. At home, your vulnerable loved ones receive the one-on-one personal attention that you would give them. This is an option. Our team of attorneys and paralegals (all Licensed Certified Social Workers) do assessments to determine the medical needs of our clients and services available under the Medicaid program.
We will help you realize the various options that are available in lieu of going to a nursing home. To hire a thorough and thoughtful elder care lawyer to assist you in planning for the medical assistance or Medicaid planning, please contact the offices of Abbate & Nohavicka LLP, Attorneys at Law today.
