Crisis Planning:
Long-term Care Planning / Nursing Home Planning / Medicaid Planning

Our focus is crisis planning. If your loved one already is in a nursing home or is about to go into a nursing home, we can advise you as to what you can do to protect his or her assets from being spent completely on the cost of care.

If you are married and your spouse is or will be living in a nursing home, we can qualify your spouse for Medicaid immediately and preserve all of the joint assets of the couple. For single people, we can preserve up to half of the assets. Depending on your life circumstances, we can help determine the best asset protection plan for you.

Can I Qualify for Medicaid?
There are a lot of misconceptions about Medicaid; people don't realize they can qualify as quickly as they can. Many are not aware that they neither have to lose all their assets nor spend all their money for quality care. At the Levinson Firm, we qualify people for Medicaid. Instead of going to a nursing home or Medicaid office, let us handle the entire application process for you while ensuring the preservation of your hard-earned assets.

Advanced Planning:
Estate Planning

Living / Revocable Trusts
We can create a revocable or living trust that allows your assets to avoid probate. This estate planning tool also reduces or avoids federal estate taxes, controls your assets, and protects your assets from a failed marriage.

Retirement Plan Trusts
If you have an IRA in excess of $100,000, using a retirement plan trust for your IRA can be advantageous. It can guarantee the stretch-out, reduce income tax, and preserve tax-free accumulation. It also protects your retirement plan from creditors and divorce. Our Wilmington estate planning attorney Laurence I. Levinson can help you create the plan that is right for you.
