Elder Law

As our country ages, more and more seniors and their families face incredibly difficult decisions involving long-term care.  But long-term care is only a small part of the specialized planning that Brown & Brown provides for older clients and their families.  From basic estate planning to real estate management to advocacy and planning for the possibility of long-term care, Brown & Brown PC provides comprehensive elder law services to help families maximize their hard earned savings, access the benefits that they deserve, and establish security and peace of mind for their future. 

Because recent changes to state and federal law make emergency long-term care planning (when someone requires nursing home care immediately) very difficult, we encourage clients to start planning for the cost of long-term care as early as possible.  Sometimes this involves significant gifting, the creation of specialized trusts, and a detailed plan.

We have provided an overview of some of the basic issues typically effecting seniors in the materials below.  However, since “elder law” encompasses so much more than simple estate and Medicaid planning, the best way to determine what planning options are right for you is to schedule a complimentary appointment to meet with one of our experienced elder law attorneys.
