What Is an Elder Law Attorney?
Elder law attorneys focus on the legal needs of older adults and their families. Their work covers issues that come up with age, from planning ahead for incapacity and long-term care to Medicaid eligibility, guardianship, and managing assets when someone can no longer make decisions for themselves.
Common areas of elder law practice include estate planning, powers of attorney, advance directives, Medicaid planning and spend-down strategies, conservatorship and guardianship, veterans' benefits, and the legal aspects of transitioning to assisted living or memory care.
Elder law attorneys often work with financial advisors, care managers, and real estate professionals so that a client's legal, financial, and housing decisions fit together and happen in a sensible order.
