When a child turns 18, he or she is presumed by law to have the capacity to make their own decisions, including medical and educational decisions. However, adult-children with disabilities often need some level of assistance making decisions. At BeneCounsel, we can help you decide between POAs or Guardianship.
A child with special needs is likely going to need a lifetime of support. At BeneCounsel, we can help you create a Special Needs Trust for your child that will protect their eligibility for SSI and Medicaid and an estate plan for you that will meet your family's unique needs and help secure your child's future.
Planning is pulling the future into the present so you can do something about it now!
