Fort Myers Special Needs Planning Attorney

You’ve always been there for your disabled child or spouse. But life’s unpredictable twists raise concerns. What if?

Our mission is to remove those ‘ifs’ and ensure a stable financial base with continued government support for you and your child.

How Can I Support My Special Needs Child Without Jeopardizing Their Benefits?

When you leave assets directly to a child with special needs, it could easily jeopardize their eligibility for programs like Medicaid or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). These benefits have strict asset limits, and going beyond can cost your child their crucial assistance.

In estate planning, the top priority for parents with special needs loved ones is ensuring their long-term care.

The aim? Equip them with robust financial security without risking essential government support like Medicaid or Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
