Helping You and Your Loved Ones
David Wallace has personal experience handling legal issues involving government benefits such as Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). He understands the difficulties you face. Our firm provides clear and practical guidance to help you get the benefits you need and to craft a plan that can preserve your assets and improve your quality of life. We handle items such as the following:
- Guardianships: A guardian can be appointed when an individual is unable to care for himself or herself and is unable to manage their affairs.
- Conservatorship: A conservator can be appointed when a person is unable to manage his or her property and other affairs because of a mental disability, physical disability or sickness.
- Medicaid planning: Medicaid is only available if you have limited income and resources. We can help you plan for Medicaid eligibility in a manner that provides for your well being and preserves your assets for your loved ones.
- Special needs trusts: If your loved one is enrolled in a means-based program such as SSI or Medicaid, you cannot leave them money without it impacting their government benefits. A special needs trust provides a way for you to supplement their income without interfering with their government benefits.
- Estate planning: Our estate planning services include establishing wills, trusts, living wills and powers of attorney.
