Special Needs PlanningSilverTree Special Needs Planning was formed specifically to work with families and caregivers who have children living with disabilities or other special needs. The firm was created out of the need for a planning service which would assist families in coordinating their legal and financial planning with the intent of helping to preserve government benefits. Regardless of the type of disability, we are here to help you eliminate the overwhelming and confusing obstacles of Special Needs Planning. Lifestyle Preferences, Legal Issues, Special Needs Trusts, and access to Government Benefits should all be considered during the planning process. We know that this can be a daunting task, but we are here to help you. Please call us today to schedule a consultation. The Need to Plan for Today and TomorrowProper planning speaks for those who cannot speak for themselves. If there is no information for the care of the person with special needs or the proper documents are not prepared those who take over the care of your son, daughter or other loved one are going to have a difficult time trying to figure things out. Special Needs Planning is a greater necessity today than ever before. Advances in medical and social treatment for people with developmental disabilities have increased their life expectancy. Greater longevity for the person with special needs creates a greater need for parents or caregivers to do proper planning that incorporates daily routines and needs as well as special needs trusts for future financial needs. Special Needs Planning plays an important role in the daily living of the person with special needs, as well as planning for when the primary care providers are no longer able to care for them. You would not go out for an evening without making sure that whoever is caring for your loved one with special needs knows what to do, how to do it, and how to reach you in an emergency. What would happen today if you were unable to provide care for an extended period of time or permanently? We have the answers to your questions. Please call us today so we can help you protect your loved ones. What Will Happen If You Do Not PlanNo Wills - No Special Needs Trust - No Letter of Intent? No Government Benefit Planning - No Budgeting? The Good News - The government has a plan for you. The Bad News - The government has a plan for you.
Key Points of Special Needs Planning
Guardianship / ConservatorshipThe future guardianship / conservatorship of your child with special needs is a planning issue to discuss now. The law provides for all people who reach age 18 to be considered an adult. This means parents no longer have legal authority on behalf of their child, even though they may have special needs. This can be remedied with the proper planning. Parents need to know their options for continuing to provide the appropriate care and supervision for their child. However, if family members do not make provisions for the supervision, care and security of the person with special needs the courts will make important decisions regarding guardianship / conservatorship, trustees, and the distribution of assets. Don't be afraid of planning... be afraid if you don't!
