Elder law encompasses a variety of planning objectives and goals many of which deal with our most basic concerns as individuals-our autonomy.    

Medicaid (which in Maine is known as MaineCare) is a federal and state funded program that pays medical and long-term care expenses for those that qualify.  Do you or your spouse qualify?  Either one or both of you might.  Call and schedule an appointment with our elder law attorneys to find out.

Wills, revocable trusts (sometimes called "living trusts"), irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney and health care directives are just the starting point for effective estate planning.  Asset coordination is important too. Many estates must be probated or require trust administration.  Don't forget taxes, both income and estate (death) taxes.  Don't worry, we have you covered.
