Planning for families with children who have a disability poses special problems. Following is a highlight of the types of trusts available when protecting a child's government benefits is an important consideration. Different types of trusts are available to meet the needs of a parent who would like to provide for a child with special needs who is a SSI or Medicaid recipient, without affecting the child's governmental payments.
A "living trust" is a trust which is funded with assets and which can be amended and revoked by the person creating the trust. The person creating the trust, often called the "settlor" or the "grantor, " typically retains all the benefits to the property placed into the trust. The grantor can also be the trustee in Ohio, although the grantor's spouse or a trust company also often serves as trustee.

Nic Thakur worked very hard for my Dad and our family during our recent estate settlement process. He answered all of our questions promptly and was always straight to the point and very knowledgeable. We had a tremendous experience utilizing Nic for our legal services and would highly recommend him for any type of family legal and estate process legal services. Thanks Nic!
