Future Planning
Looking at what the future holds for a person with a disability may require thoughtful pre-planning.
New York Lawyers for the Public Interest (NYLPI) provides essential tools to successfully understand 1) the special needs trust / supplemental needs trust, 2) a healthcare proxy, 3) a letter of intent, 4) a power of attorney, 5) supported decision-making and / or guardianship, and much, much more!
You will also be able to answer questions like:
Do you know how to plan for the future of your family member with disabilities?
Do you know how to preserve government benefits such as Medicaid, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Social Security Income (SSI), while saving money for your family member with disabilities?
