Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in New Jersey

I'm sorry to hear about your child's illness.

There is no "form" for setting up a trust. Your situation really requires that you consult with a lawyer who has experience in setting up special needs or supplemental needs trust and in dealing with medicaid planning. Look for a lawyer in your county or nearby who does.

This response is not legal advice, since I do not have all of the information that would be required, and I do not have a representation agreement with you.

* If the answers to your question confirm that you have a valid issue or worthwhile claim, your next step should almost always be to establish a dialog with a lawyer who can provide specific advice to you. Contact a lawyer in your county or township.

* Another reason for contacting a lawyer is that it is often impossible to give a good answer in the Internet Q&A format without having more information. The unique circumstances of your situation and things that you may not have thought to mention in your question may completely change the answer. If you want to be sure that you have a complete answer to your question and an understanding of what that answer means, establish a connection with a lawyer who practices in the area of your concern.

wow, I am sorry for your child's illness. I have done this kind of work before, set up a charitable corporation to accept donations. Why don't you call me, and I will see what I can do for you.

Give me a call, make an appointment to come see me, and I will go over this with you, and give you some advice. I will let you know up front what it will cost for me to help you.

Disclaimer: This answer is based only on the statements you have made, and may not be accurate.

Your question and any response does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and this law firm. You can not rely on the statements made by an attorney given over the internet. The exact facts of your situation, including facts which you have not mentioned in your question, may completely change the result for your situation.

I agree with Bob, but have some confusion as to exactly what you are trying to accomplish; set up a trust to cover the child's expenses, raise funds for research and/or to help other children, or something else. More information is needed for a better response.
