A Last Will and Testament (Will) is a document that determines who will inherit your property (both personal and real) after you die.
If you have young children, your Will may also express to the court whom you want to finish raising your children, as well as who will handle any money your children may have inherited (such as life insurance or personal injury proceeds following an accident.)
Elder law deals with issues that arise when our medical condition, housing needs, and finances overlap, due to our advancing age.
Many people are surprised to learn that they can qualify for government benefits to help pay for long term care.
Common legal advice includes powers of attorney, living wills, guardianships and conservatorships, asset preservation as it relates to long term care, qualifying for Medicaid benefits that can assist in paying for long-term care, and more general estate planning conducted in a way that will not interfere with obtaining those government benefits.
A Last Will and Testament (Will) is a document that states who will inherit your property (both personal and real) after you die and who you would like to put in charge.
If you have young children, your Will may also express to the court whom you want to finish raising your children, as well as who will handle any money your children may have inherited (such as life insurance or personal injury proceeds following an accident.)
This is often accomplished by including a trust for the children as part of your will.
Iowa has two main Medicaid programs to assist residents in paying for medical care.
One program serves people who need to reside in a nursing home, and this is what most people think of when they think of Medicaid.
The other program is called the "Elderly Waiver."
This program provides funding to pay for in-home medical assistance to people who need help, yet still live in their own homes or in independent or assisted living.
For those over the age of 55 years, residing in Polk or surrounding counties, and living either at home or in assisted living that does not include memory care, there is a third program that parallels the Elderly Waiver program, which is called the PACE program.
