Palm Beach Gardens Special Needs Trusts Lawyer

Caring for a loved one with special needs presents a number of challenges. If you have a child with special needs, you fully understand the importance of ensuring that your child has sufficient resources for his or her care after you are unable to care for him or her. Most individuals with special needs are eligible for certain government benefits. However, acquiring money through an inheritance or other means could compromise an individual’s eligibility for these programs. By working with an experienced estate planning lawyer, you can design a special needs trust or other estate planning tool that will ensure your loved one has supplemental financial resources without jeopardizing eligibility for benefits.

One of the most common estate planning tools for individuals with special needs is the special needs trust. By creating a special needs trust, you can protect your loved one’s eligibility for government benefits, including SSI and Medicaid, while setting aside assets in a trust to be used for additional goods and services.
