Melville Life Care Planning Lawyer

Life Care Planning legal services combine Asset Protection, Medicaid and Care Advocacy, and offer a holistic approach that helps families with every aspect of caring for someone with a chronic illness. We were the first Long Island elder law firm to integrate the Life Care Plan model into its practice, and have done so since 2009.

In essence, as a skilled elder law attorney could explain, Life Care Planning legal services help people find and pay for good long-term health care by bundling asset protection, Medicaid benefits qualification, long-term care services coordination, community and nursing home advocacy, and crisis intervention. Let a Melville life care planning lawyer help you today with your future plans today.
