Please DO NOT transfer or move any of your mother's money or property until you have spoken with a medicaid planning attorney. A transfer of assets or property may disqualify your mother from medicaid. With proper planning, it is often possible to preserve family wealth and ensure that a loved one qualifies for the benefits and medical services they need under medicaid. If you would like to set up a consultation to discuss your particular situation, please feel free to give our office a call.
