When Lisa learned her son Jacob, who has autism, was set to inherit $150,000 from his grandmother, she realized it could create a big mess. Without proper planning, the inheritance would have disqualified Jacob from Medi-Cal and SSI, putting his access to vital care at risk.
Lisa worked with us for Special Needs Legal Planning and set up a stand-alone third-party Special Needs Trust. Now, Jacob can receive the inheritance while continuing to qualify for government benefits.
Lisa sleeps better at night, knowing Jacob will always be cared for.
