What is Elder Law?

Elder Law is a broad category of legal practice. It encompasses many of the issues that are important to Seniors and to their families. It touches upon several areas and combines them into a unified approach to the way a Senior interacts with her family, with her estate, with the government, with medical care providers, and with her community.

The main areas that we explore with our Senior clients include:

  • Wills and Trusts
  • Guardianship for Disabled Adults
  • Nursing Home and Assisted Living Contracts
  • Elder Abuse and Neglect
  • Medicare and Long-Term Care Insurance
  • Planning for Incapacity
  • Understanding a Long-Term Care Resident Contract
