Estate Planning Essentials for Greenwood, Indiana

Estate planning is the process of creating legal documents that protect you during your lifetime and ensure your wishes are carried out after your death. A comprehensive estate plan helps answer questions such as: Who will make financial decisions if I cannot? Who can speak with doctors about my medical care? Who will raise my children if something happens to me? How will my assets be distributed? Can my family avoid probate? How can I leave an inheritance that is protected and well managed? Without an estate plan, Indiana law—not you—will determine many of these answers. Vick Law in Greenwood can help.

Can Medicaid Take My Mom's House?

Medicaid estate recovery is the process where the State of Indiana seeks repayment from a Medicaid recipient’s estate after that person passes away. Indiana explains that when a Medicaid recipient dies, the state is required by federal and state law to seek recovery from the estate for certain amounts Medicaid paid on that person’s behalf. In plain language, this means that if Medicaid paid for long-term care, the state may later try to recover those costs from assets the person left behind. If you are worried about protecting your home from long-term care costs, Vick Law can help you understand your options. Schedule a consultation to discuss whether a Medicaid Asset Protection Trust makes sense for your family. Vick Law, P.C. 3209 W Smith Valley Rd #113 Greenwood, IN 46142 317-884-3133 vicklaw.org
