Estate Planning and Probate Administration

Tippecanoe County Estate Attorneys

We work with clients who have family members with special needs or are facing the possibility of long-term care in a nursing or convalescent home. Certain areas of the law are specific to the needs of the elderly or disabled. While you try to prepare for your future long-term needs as best you can, sometimes life catches you off-guard. The sudden need for nursing home care can cause you serious financial concerns. If you are married and your spouse needs nursing home care, you may be worried over your rights and your ability to provide for yourself. Insurance has very limited coverage for nursing home costs, and you may be faced with having to apply for Medicaid assistance for yourself or a loved one. We can help you to protect your income and your assets. We can help you or someone you love qualify for Medicaid benefits while protecting your rights.

A well-designed estate plan is often the best legacy that you can leave your heirs. A comprehensive plan that clearly identifies how your assets will be distributed will lessen the stress and anxiety your loved ones will face. In addition, the proper tools can help minimize the tax burden and ensure that your heirs receive the full benefit of your estate.
