Trust Planning for Families with Special Needs Children

If you have a disabled or special needs child, you may need help understanding, applying for, and maintaining disability benefits for your child. We can help you understand the purpose and structure of all of the various benefit programs that may be available to your child and help you create a disability plan that will ensure the safety and welfare of your child into the future. Types of disability benefit programs include Medicaid, Social Security disability, supplemental Social Security income, VA benefits, long-term health care insurance, and disability plans provided by your job or insurance plans. We can also help you set up a special needs trust for your disabled child so that you can pass along your property or assets to him or her without jeopardizing his or her eligibility for these government benefits in the future.

Disability planning involves understanding all of the county, state, federal, and other benefit programs available and organizing them to ensure that your disabled child's future well-being and security is established and maintained.
