What Is Elder Law?
Elder law is an area of law that deals
primarily with issues concerning the elderly. However,
elder law attorneys help many younger clients prepare for
old age as well. Elder law attorneys have the skills and
knowledge to help their clients plan for long-term
care and for legal
incapacity. They can also help clients create wills,
living trusts, durable powers of attorney, and other estate
planning documents.
In addition, elder law attorneys can
help clients with issues revolving around public benefits
programs, such as Medicaid (or Medi-Cal), Medicare, and
Social Security. Elder law attorneys also know about the
applicable tax consequences of transferring assets and
some attorneys specialize in elder abuse. Attorneys practicing
elder law can also help refer you to other resources and
services available to the elderly.
