Q1: What exactly is elder law?
A: Elder law is a specialized area of the law that focuses on issues affecting seniors. It typically includes estate planning, healthcare directives, long-term care planning (including Medicaid eligibility), and addressing issues related to guardianship or power of attorney.
Q2: Do I need an elder law attorney for estate planning?
A: While general estate planning can be handled by some attorneys, elder law attorneys possess specific expertise in the unique legal issues seniors face, including long-term care costs, Medicaid planning, and healthcare directives. This specialized knowledge can be invaluable.
Q3: How long does the Medicaid planning process take?
A: The timeline for Medicaid planning can vary significantly based on individual circumstances, asset structures, and the complexity of the situation. A consultation at our Springfield office can provide a more accurate assessment.
Q4: Can you help me set up power of attorney?
A: Yes, establishing a durable power of attorney is a key service we offer. We can help you designate someone you trust to make financial and/or healthcare decisions for you if you become incapacitated.
Q5: Are your services only for seniors, or can younger people benefit?
A: While our practice focuses on elder law, many of the issues we address, such as estate planning and healthcare directives, are relevant for individuals of all ages who want to ensure their wishes are known and respected.
