Among other services which enhance the quality of life, Elder Law Attorneys help people to ethically and legally convert countable savings to non-countable savings, so that Elder Law clients can keep their savings and still qualify for Medicaid. This is done not out of greed but of necessity so that the Elder Law client is not left indigent at the cost of long-term care.
In the words of one court, "No agency of the government has any right to complain about the fact that middle-class people confronted with desperate circumstances choose [to do Medicaid asset protection planning] when it is the government itself which has established the rule that poverty is a prerequisite to the receipt of government assistance in the defraying of the costs of ruinously expensive, but absolutely essential medical treatment."

When a death in the family is not enough; on top of that you HAVE to find a Lawyer that will assist you through the Probate process. So thankful and blessed to have had Mark on our side as we navigated this tough season of life!
