Elder Law
Brophy & Leonard has extensive experience in the challenging field of elder law. As the general population continues to age, the laws governing this vital demographic are frequently changing. Brophy & Leonard embraces the new philosophy of elder law that sees nursing home care as a choice of last resort. We champion the independence of our elder clients and recognize their desire for care on their own terms. We will fight for the family caregivers and enable both elders and caregivers to stay independent of outsider services for as long as possible. When long term care is necessary, we are able to assist with facility placement and Medicaid planning. We offer:
-
Elder client "house calls", we'll meet with the elder at their own home
-
Coordination with geriatric care managers and other elder service organizations
-
"Income Only" trusts and other elder specific estate planning
-
Guardianships
-
Medicaid/"MassHealth" planning strategies, application preparation and filings
