Benefits of Advanced Planning
For Caregivers
It can be overwhelming to care for an elderly parent or relative. Many people know it would help to plan ahead, but it’s hard to know where to start. When juggling work, family and caregiving, there’s no time for research. If the time comes that you can no longer care for your loved one by yourself, many people worry about how a nursing home could take your loved one’s home and everything they worked a lifetime to earn.
It is easy to put off making decisions until a crisis forces you to act. But with our Advanced Planning help, we can guide you in making a good plan. You will have peace of mind knowing your loved one will get the care he or she needs, while family assets are protected.
For Older Adults
If you don’t plan at all and end up needing long term care, you will likely spend your life savings in a very short time. As a result you will not be able to pass anything on to your loved ones. You have worked hard and don’t want it all to go to a care facility or the government… this would be hard to swallow.
The more in advance one can plan, the more options are available and the less expensive the planning will be. Along with our legal colleagues, we’ll help you protect assets, as well as ensure that you have all legal documents in place for your family to help you now, and in the future.
