A Position of Strength

Elder Law & Medicaid

FitzGerald Morris Baker Firth PC is a recognized leader in the field of Elder Law and has special expertise in asset protection, including irrevocable trust planning, creating deeds with reserved life estates, and outright transfers of cash. This is done to protect our clients' savings in the event of future long-term care.

Protections are available to preserve funds for the support of the spouse in the community, even if the ill spouse has already been admitted to a nursing home. The firm assists clients in submitting Medicaid applications to the local County. The firm encourages clients to consider long-term care insurance, and can review policy coverage with them. The firm also advises and represents families in bringing Guardianship applications to Court where a parent or spouse has lost capacity.
