Elder Law Associates PA is a boutique elder law firm that practices exclusively in Medicaid and long term care planning including long term care insurance, Medicaid applications, home and community-based Medicaid waiver services, diversion program benefits, nursing home benefits, spousal refusal applications, and Medicaid fair hearings and appeals; nursing home and assisted living facility residents’ rights litigation; asset preservation planning with a special focus on planning in light of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, including personal service agreements and promissory notes; disability planning, including special needs trusts and guardianship; estate planning, including wills and trusts and advance directives; and probate, which encompasses estate and trust administration.

We assist clients in planning for the possibility of disability, incapacity, home health care, assisted living and/or nursing home placement. Our firm enables clients to avoid impoverishment caused by the escalating cost of long term care, to maintain their right to make health care decisions and to avoid unnecessary medical treatment.

Our attorneys have worked hard to earn the trust and respect of our clients. The firm first gained its reputation nearly fifteen years ago as a premiere elder law and estate planning firm by educating clients on technical aspects of the law in an understandable manner, by working as a team with other professionals providing services to seniors and persons with disabilities and by providing the highest level of personal and discreet client service. Elder Law Associates PA offers legal counsel with expert skill and a keen understanding of the needs of both individuals and families.
