Elder Law / Medicaid Planning

We provide strategic counsel and advocacy to individuals and families in order to protect their assets from health care costs not covered by Medicare, such as long-term care at home and nursing home care. Our managing partner Moira Laidlaw, a Certified Elder Law Attorney (CELA), brings a particular depth of experience to this arena. With an unmatched level of communication, service, and compassion, Ms. Laidlaw and our experienced team of elder law attorneys provide our clients with invaluable asset protection strategies, such as establishing irrevocable trusts that allow our clients income during their lifetime; advising on ways to protect our clients’ homes; appointing power of attorney to address our clients’ financial needs should they become incapacitated; reviewing long-term care insurance policies for coverage analysis; helping our clients qualify for Medicaid; and advising on how to transfer assets without reduced penalties based on the Medicaid 5 year look-back period for nursing home care.
