Such transfers should only be made with the assistance of an experienced elder law attorney. We can review your situation and recommend the solution that is appropriate for you.

- Veterans benefits
- Social Security benefits

Swift Action In A Medical Crisis
If you or a loved one is facing a medical crisis requiring nursing home care, we can take quick action to help you find a way to cover the costs. Medicare pays for only a very short period of nursing home care – often just a few days. After that, the patient must find a way to pay for the always-increasing cost of skilled nursing care. We can quickly assess your case and determine whether you are eligible for Medicaid coverage.
