Video # 1: Introduction to Income and Asset Protection Strategies for Home Care

Video # 2: What an Elder Law Attorney Can Do for You and Your Family
On this video, David reveals simple yet innovative methods for obtaining Medicaid coverage of home care. These methods are unknown to most people, yet fully supported by law and very effective in preserving income and assets that have been accumulated over a lifetime.

Video # 3: How to Get Nursing Home Care on Terms that Benefit You
On this segment, David and Carole explain how to obtain full Medicaid payment when a spouse needs nursing home care. The dangers of attempting to do planning without professional legal guidance are covered.
When assets are transferred between marital partners without the proper legal structures in place, Medicaid can seek to collect the cost of care from the well spouse. A Medicaid attorney needs to do planning for both individuals so they receive complete protection.

Video # 4: Effective Planning for the Single Person Who Needs Nursing Home Care
Carole talks about saving an individual's income and assets. Although more complex than planning for a married couple, a substantial portion of the person's financial holdings can be saved with effective planning.

Video # 5: Special Trust Strategies for Protection of the Disabled
David explains Supplemental Needs Trusts, which allow disabled people to retain the benefit of money that they have or receive, without disrupting eligibility for Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid benefits.
A special procedure is also outlined, whereby a relative can provide for the financial needs of a disabled person without compromising his or her government benefits.

Video # 6: The Value and Importance of the Power of Attorney Document
David explains how a power of attorney is the cornerstone of effective Elder Law planning, and how stationery store and Internet versions often create more problems than they solve. He also discusses how many people mistakenly feel that they are signing away control of their lives, when in fact an effectively drafted power of attorney is actually a method of taking control of your future.

"Both my sister Harriet & I would like to thank Mrs. Lamson and yourself & all the team who helped us so much in preparing the way for my Father's successful application to Medicaid. There was a real support guiding us through the minefield that is the application process....The staff was very caring and responsive to our needs and continues to be so....We couldn't recommend them more highly."Deanna Littell
