Special Needs Planning

Looking To Start Protecting A Loved One With Special Needs’ Future?

Planning for the long-term well-being and care of a loved one with special needs demands thoughtful planning and careful consideration. If you’ve started thinking through what this may look like in your situation, there’s a good chance you’ve been confronted with concerns like, How can I ensure they have financial security without jeopardizing essential government benefits? or What steps do I need to take to create a sustainable and ideal plan that protects them for the long haul?

These are complex questions that strike at the core of what estate planning is all about. Intimidating as they may be when facing them on your own, dealing with them with an experienced and trustworthy special needs planning lawyer can make all the difference.

Special needs estate planning law goes far beyond a basic will.

When your Hyl Conte Law, PLLC, attorney sets out to tackle your special needs Medicaid planning, they work closely with you to create solutions specific to you and your special needs loved one. Special needs trusts, guardianship arrangements, and letters of intent are just a few of the key means they’ll leverage to that end. And a compassionate and detail-orientated approach is the manner in which they’ll bring it all together for you.

Paralyzed By Fear Or Unfamiliarity With Special Needs Estate Planning?

It’s completely natural to let fear get the best of you when you’re up against something you have no experience in, especially when the consequences can be so dramatic. Compound that with the worry that may be eating away at your mental and emotional energy as you think about how one day you may not be able to care for your special needs loved one as you have all along.

Think about it: something as simple as a well-intentioned gift could unintentionally disqualify them from vital benefits they’ll rely on. This is the last thing you want to happen. The worry you’re experiencing is well-founded. These issues and other important decisions, like whether to establish a guardianship or power of attorney, can be difficult to make.
