Planning for a loved one with special needs requires careful thought and legal expertise.
At Blue Mahoe Law, we specialize in creating tailored special needs plans that protect your loved one’s financial future, ensuring they continue to receive necessary public benefits while securing assets for their care and well-being.
When caring for a loved one with special needs, you want to ensure they have the financial support they need throughout their life, without jeopardizing their eligibility for essential government benefits like SSI and Medicaid.
Without the right planning, a sudden inheritance or gift could disqualify them from these benefits. Special needs planning helps you create solutions that provide financial security, while also preserving access to these crucial benefits.
At Blue Mahoe Law, we work with you to develop a plan that ensures your loved one is supported now and in the future.

Special needs planning involves a variety of legal tools designed to protect your loved one’s future and ensure they receive the care they need:
A special needs trust allows you to provide for your loved one’s needs without affecting their eligibility for government benefits like SSI and Medicaid. This trust can be used to cover expenses such as medical care, education, and personal care.
The Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act allows individuals with disabilities to save money for qualified expenses without affecting their eligibility for benefits. These tax-advantaged accounts help pay for things like housing, education, and transportation.
If your loved one is unable to make decisions for themselves, guardianship provides a legal framework to appoint someone you trust to make medical, financial, and personal decisions on their behalf.
A letter of intent is a personal document that outlines your wishes for your loved one’s care, including day-to-day needs, health care preferences, and any other considerations that can help future caregivers provide the best support possible.
Without proper planning, your loved one with special needs could lose access to essential government benefits, which could leave them financially vulnerable. Unexpected inheritances or gifts could disqualify them from receiving the support they rely on, making life significantly harder for them and your family.
