What is "Special Needs Planning," exactly?
Individuals with special needs will often require various supports from those outside their families as they enter adulthood. Our team provides the framework for each aspect of life that parents should consider as they develop a long term plan. From government benefits to trust planning, guardianship and transition planning, to establishing circles of support to care for your adult child when you are gone. Our full-service firm can assist you throughout the sometimes confusing and overwhelming process. We will make sure you have learned about every opportunity possible and planned for various contingencies along the way. Our roadmap of planning includes a focus on: IEP/ education and transition plans, your child's government benefit eligibility, financial planning, future living options, goals for your child's adult life, a care team who will be in place when you are gone. We handle trust planning, estate plans, educational advocacy/IEP work, guardianship, government benefits, and life planning. "Special Needs Planning" can entail much more than just establishing a Special Needs Trust. Every individual we support is different, and we tailor our services to address each family's priorities. Our mission is to efficiently provide expert insights and advice to give you peace of mind for the present and the future, long after you are gone. Because we are a full-service Special Needs Planning firm, we can provide all of a client's special needs legal services under one roof. Our team includes a trust planning attorney, education attorney, guardianship attorney, benefits specialist and nurse paralegal. Our families tell their story once; provide records and paperwork once; but benefit from a team of different experts throughout their relationship with our firm. |
