Special considerations for special needs children
If you have a child with special needs, you probably worry about what will happen to him or her after you are gone. Government assistance like Supplementary Security Income and Medicaid may be available for those who qualify, but what about day-to-day care or therapeutic and educational services they may need?
A special needs trust may be the answer you’re looking for. We can help you set up a trust to provide the financial resources your child needs to enjoy a good quality of life while preserving their ability to qualify for important government benefits. And you can appoint a trustee to help ensure the assets in that trust are managed and distributed according to the best interests of your child—in line with your specific instructions, as outlined in the trust.
