Comprehensive long-term care planning takes into account a wide variety of concerns.

We will work with financial professionals to help you optimize your plan to give you peace of mind that the plan is ideally suited to your unique situation. We explore many tools to craft the best plan to meet the needs of each client. Amortizing assets over time may serve the important goals of maximizing quality of life and care concerns. Insurance policies may be appropriate for some families, while trusts, annuities or life estates may be more appropriate for other circumstances.

While pursuing an effective elder care plan, you may be looking to find the appropriate facility that will be your mother or father’s home, while also acting as a caregiver for your loved one. We will explain the benefit of having a Medicaid-compliant personal services agreement in place to protect your family’s assets.

If you are a veteran, or the spouse of a vet, we can help you understand the eligibility requirements of VA Aid and Assistance benefits.
