Answers to Common Elder Law Questions
What is elder law?
Elder law is a legal practice area that focuses on the needs of Older Americans, including long-term care planning, asset protection, and planning for incapacity or guardianship.
Does elder law include Medicaid planning?
Yes. We help Florida families understand Medicaid eligibility rules and create strategies that may protect assets while securing access to long-term care.
When should I start elder law planning?
It’s never too early to begin. Planning ahead helps ensure you or your loved one can maintain independence, protect assets, and access care when it’s needed most.
What happens if there’s a disagreement between beneficiaries?
If someone loses capacity and has not appointed agents through durable powers of attorney or health care planning tools, a guardianship may be necessary. We guide families through both preventive planning and emergency situations.
Protecting Your Choices, Preserving Your Dignity
Aging doesn’t have to mean giving up control. Through thoughtful elder law planning, you can decide who helps manage your finances, where you’ll receive care, and how your assets are used. We believe every senior deserves to age with dignity, independence, and peace of mind. Our team is here to ensure your plan supports your goals and respects your wishes.
