Middle Class and High-Net-Worth Estate Planning

Every family’s situation is different, and we at CHWM are sensitive to complex family dynamics that can impact an estate plan. Our goal is to resolve family differences to produce a result that everyone is satisfied with. This may involve special needs trusts, spendthrift trusts, and/or independent Trustees and Personal Representatives.

Elder Law and Medicaid Planning

The field lof Elder Law can be complex and must be approached with care for the client. Elder Law attorneys must use a holistic approach to meet the needs of elderly clients. Our attorneys frequently collaborate with professionals such as CPAs, financial advisors, and health care professionals to ensure clients’ legal, financial, and healthcare needs are met.

Medicaid — or as it is known in Massachusetts, MassHealth — is an important benefit for elderly Americans that can help manage the increased health care costs that come with age. Medicaid eligibility depends on many factors, especially an individual’s income and assets. We help our clients facilitate their eligibility for Medicaid to ensure that they can make the most of their benefits.
