What is Elder Law?
The role of a Westchester County elder law attorney is to help individuals and families to effectively manage long-term legal and financial matters relating to healthcare in ways that make the best use of legal instruments-including wills, trusts, estates, and guardianships-within the context of aging. Key dynamics include the Medicaid and Medicare systems, as well as the quality of nursing care. In some cases, special care needs to be taken when planning for persons with disabilities.

Protecting your life savings
The exorbitant costs of long-term care, as well as shifting laws and eligibility requirements, are financially and emotionally challenging to families and go beyond the disciplines of estate planning. Experience, as well as aggressive representation, are necessary in order to achieve the highest quality of care, in a skilled nursing facility or at home, as well as the best protection of family assets.
