What Is A Special Needs Trust?

If you have a loved one with special needs and you’re their main source of support, you probably worry about what will happen to them if you should pass on. A special needs trust is a way to set aside funds to support family members who cannot support themselves completely after you pass away. Whether your loved one has dementia, a lifelong disability, or another condition, you don’t want to leave their care to chance. Setting up a special needs trust is the best gift you can leave to them when you depart from this life. Our estate law team can help.

What Are the Benefits of a Special Needs Trust?

Many people with disabilities are eligible for government benefits. However, if you simply leave a sum of money or other valuable assets to them in your will, that usually makes them ineligible for those benefits. Creating a special needs trust can allow your loved one to continue receiving government benefits while giving them a financial safety net to meet their needs. If your special needs family member needs a guardian after you pass, a special needs trust can provide for that situation as well. Don’t risk your loved one’s future when a special needs trust is available. Let one of our estate attorneys create a special needs trust for you today.

An estate lawyer has a wealth of experience in creating trusts customized to each family’s unique needs and circumstances. Our estate attorneys are familiar with all the challenges that come with guiding you through the process of providing your loved one with the protection they deserve.
