If you need nursing home care, the high cost will likely leave you and your family facing difficult financial decisions. However, you may have more options than you realize.
Our experienced elder law attorneys can help you qualify for medicaid benefits and protect your assets from being exhausted to pay for your care.
A semi-private room in a Florida nursing home costs more than $12,000 per month.
Can you afford that?
Many people mistakenly think they have too many assets to qualify for government assistance. However, even with a large estate, paying out-of-pocket for long-term care until your savings is gone isn’t your only choice.
With careful medicaid planning, our experienced attorney team can use legal tools to allow you or your spouse to qualify for nursing home benefits while still preserving your home and assets.

Medicaid can help you pay for a nursing home stay, but applying for and getting approved is complicated.
In Florida, medicaid looks at many different factors to determine qualification. Things like income sources, what assets you own and their value, real property, and whether there are other benefits available to you.
Medicaid will also ask if you’ve given assets away. Your application will be denied if you don’t meet even one requirement.
Whether you are planning for future needs, facing an impending crisis, or already paying for long-term care, there are options we can discuss with you.
Medicaid does provide some exceptions to spending down your entire savings and allows you to keep some assets.
There are also several legal tools available when planning for medicaid:
Planning before your loved one needs care allows you or your loved one many options such as creative trust drafting or the ability to convert or transfer assets.
If your loved one needs immediate nursing home care or is already in a nursing home, it’s not too late.
Don’t pay out of pocket until your savings is exhausted. There are legal tools that we can implement to manage income and minimize assets quickly to get you medicaid eligible.
Don’t worry.
We can guide you through a complicated and bureaucratic process. We’ll help you determine why you were denied and work with you to correct your application and get approved.
