Re: Social Security Benefits
The best way is to establish a Special Needs Trust, a trust designed to assist people who presently receive government benefits to accept inheritances without jeopardizing those benefits.
An Elder Law attorney is who you need to meet with to draft such a trust. There are several good elder law attorneys in Decatur. You might go to www.Naela.org and do a zip code search for an attorney.
