Special Needs Planning FAQs

What is special needs planning?

Special needs planning focuses on helping families plan for the long-term care, financial security, and quality of life of a loved one with special needs.

Do you help with special needs trusts?

Yes, we work alongside estate planning professionals to help families understand how special needs trusts may fit into their overall financial and estate strategy.

Will planning affect government benefits?

Special needs planning is often designed to help coordinate financial strategies while preserving eligibility for certain government benefits, when appropriate.

The use of trusts involves complex tax rules and regulations.
