ELDER LAW
Elder Law is an area of practice that focuses on a variety of legal needs that an older adult may have. In addition to preparing estate planning documents, the attorneys at Lessing & Kryszak assist clients and their families with Medicaid planning, guardianship issues, health care planning and elder rights.
Many people are concerned about how they will pay for the high cost of nursing home care. If there is a possibility that one’s funds may run out, there are many rules that must be followed in order to be eligible for Medicaid benefits.
The attorneys at Lessing & Kryszak are very familiar with the Medicaid rules, and we will help guide you through the Medicaid process. We will also work closely with the nursing home to make the transition as smooth as possible and to help you in the future when redetermination meetings with the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services are held.
We are also experienced in handling guardianship issues. Not only have we represented guardians, but we also have been guardians ourselves. We are familiar with the laws that must be followed and Probate Court’s requirements. Whether a client will be the guardian of the estate or the person of another or both we will make sure our client is well-versed in the law.
We enjoy helping people in any way we can to make life easier. Whether it is a question regarding health care planning or a situation involving one’s rights, you can trust the attorneys at Lessing & Kryszak to do their best to help with your immediate and long-term elder law issues. From simply making a few telephone calls to litigating an issue in court, we are the law firm for you.
Please call us at 440/934-5330 to make an appointment. We look forward to meeting you.
