ESTATE PLANNING
AND MEDICAID ASSET PROTECTION
Medicaid planning is a way to protect the assets of an individual who needs to enter a nursing home. We help clients qualify for government medical benefits legally and ensure their estates are protected for their families, instead of the forced sale of family homes and farms to pay high nursing home expenses.
The best way to ensure you or your loved one will qualify for Medicaid without a huge loss of assets is to start planning well before long term care is needed. However, it is never too late to begin the planning process. Even in a "crisis situation", we are able to still protect assets in the majority of cases even if the individual is in a nursing home facility.
​
Our firm offers power of attorneys, living wills, wills, and Medicaid Asset Protection trusts.

CRIMINAL LAW
When you are facing criminal charges, you don't want to trust your case to an overworked public defender who doesn't have the time to give your case the attention it needs. Your attorney's resources and experience can mean the difference between a favorable and unfavorable case result.
​
At our firm, we have the necessary experience to see your case through to a successful conclusion. It is often difficult to know what the impact of hiring the wrong defense attorney can have on your future and how it can alter your life. Therefore, at Matthew T.
