Re: Property
Sorry, but I would need a lot more details
here. Was this a gift? Was a deed recorded?
Might the parents be applying for any sort
of public aid, including title 19 or medicaid?
The area of medicaid divestment, if that's
what you are talking about, if perilous and
full of pitfalls, including potential criminal
and civil liability. Please feel free to
get back to me with a more detailed history.
Re: Property
Your question does not contain enough information
to answer. Much will depend on how the transfer
was made. If you are concerned about divestment
regarding Title 19, many more facts are necessary.
One of my partners practices in the area of Elder
Law. If you would like to provide more detail,
perhaps we could give you a better answer.
