Medicaid Planning Attorneys
Medicaid planning attorneys help families protect assets before long-term care costs deplete them. They navigate Medicaid's 5-year lookback rule, establish Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts (MAPTs), and manage spend-down strategies. Essential for families facing nursing home costs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Medicaid 5-year lookback?
Medicaid reviews all asset transfers made in the 5 years before your application. Transfers for less than fair market value can result in a period of Medicaid ineligibility. Proper planning before this window is critical.
How much can a Medicaid planning attorney save my family?
Depending on your state and asset level, proper Medicaid planning can protect $50,000–$500,000+ in assets from spend-down. The attorney fee is typically a fraction of what is protected.
