Planning for Long-Term Care

Most of our clients have one major asset: their home. Your home may be your most significant investment. As you reach retirement age, you may begin to realize that your significant investment in your home will prevent you from getting the healthcare access that so many others in the community get through Medicare and Medicaid. At the Law Offices of Robert J. Madruga, we help our clients find that balance between protecting their assets and being able to go the distance with their long-term care.

We work with individuals or couples to plan for long-term care and other elder law issues so they are prepared when the time comes. We can help clients explore the possibility of long-term care insurance and whether that is an affordable option. We also can establish a Medicaid trust for your house that will allow you to receive government medical assistance, to stay in your house until death, and to still keep the house inheritable by your loved ones after you pass on.

Our Comprehensive Services

We find that many aspects of estate planning are interrelated. As a result, we offer full-service estate planning for you in order to help you develop a plan that covers all bases for your future. In addition to adapting wills, trusts or other plans you have in place, we can draft durable powers of attorney or healthcare proxies and help you plan for future tax implications. As you grow closer to retirement, you may need to put in place a power of attorney to establish who will make medical decisions on your behalf. When you contact our law office for a will, you get more than just a document. You get a plan for the future and a lawyer that will work with you in the years to come to help adapt your plan as your life changes.

Whether you are looking for a will, need to establish a Medicaid trust or are trying to minimize the taxes on your estate, contact an experienced estate planning attorney online or by calling 978-283-6882 (toll free at 888-803-8944).
