Elder Law
Planning for Long-Term Care
Are you concerned about how you will pay for long-term care costs for yourself, your spouse, a parent or other loved one? Are you concerned about retaining enough income to survive or whether you will have to sell the family home?
We help our clients effectively plan for long-term care while preserving as much of their estate assets as possible. When needed, we help clients navigate the Medical Assistance application and approval process, in order to obtain all of the benefits for which they are eligible.
Caregiver Support and Services
Are you caring for an aging parent or other family member and concerned about how to help them plan for their financial and health care needs now or in their later years?
We help Seniors and their caregivers protect financial assets and plan for health care decision-making. We provide customized tools for organizing and safekeeping important financial and health care records so our clients can access them when needed.
Elder Financial and Physical Protection
There are an estimated 4 million cases of elder abuse in the U.S. each year, including fraudulent financial actions, and physical and emotional exploitation. Many of these cases involve family members.
Minnesota laws are robust about protecting vulnerable adults. At Guardian Counsel Law Office, we help identify the resources needed and the steps required to identify and stop abuse and to protect vulnerable adults against the potential for future abuse.
