Our attorneys help you prepare a comprehensive plan to address all aspects of the care of your loved ones with special needs.
- Special Needs Trust: Creating a special needs trust may be the single most important thing you can do to protect your loved ones who require extra care. A special needs trust provides financial support without removing eligibility for government benefits.
- Letter of Intent: Also known as an ethical will, a letter of intent provides guidance for future caretakers regarding your plans for your child with special needs. This document fills in the details that legal documents do not cover, addressing everything from the child's life history to current food preferences.
- Guardianship for Disabled Children Who Are Turning 18: Once a child turns 18, privacy laws and regulations prevent health care providers, educators and other professionals from speaking openly with a child's parents, regardless of that child's needs or abilities. A guardianship can allow open communication and clear authority regarding important decisions, regardless of your child's age.
For most of our services at Hayes & Wilson, PLLC, we provide a free initial consultation and fixed fees.
