If you need to make provisions for long-term care for an adult or a disabled child, you need to exercise caution. Certain actions and financial transactions can jeopardize a person's Medicaid eligibility. The Pollan Law Firm can provide guidance to protect your options, now and in the future.

We work in all areas of elder law — At The Pollan Law Firm, we work exclusively in the areas of elder law and estate planning. Elder law is not just about nursing home Medicaid. We understand the complex interactions that determine Medicaid eligibility and how to use all available sources to provide for the long-term care needs of clients while preserving assets.

These decisions must be made with good sense and forethought. The Pollan Law Firm will work closely with you to help you make the right decisions — decisions that provide for long-term care needs and preserve your assets.

Our Elder Law expertise is broad and deep — We know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid, and what these healthcare benefits can provide.

While Medicaid benefits vary from state to state, Medicare benefits are the same regardless of the state you reside in.

The state of Georgia has more than 20 types of Medicaid. Each with a different financial eligibility and level of care required. At The Pollan Law Firm, we understand the complex rules that govern the Medicaid systems and we can guide you towards the most advantageous type of Medicaid for your healthcare needs.

When a healthcare arises, your family member needs to know if they are going to be covered.

A holistic, integrated approach — We understand that Medicaid is not the only solution for our clients. Whenever possible, we favor integrated solutions that combine Medicaid, veterans' benefits, private long-term care insurance and sound estate planning.

Responsive, caring service — We work for individuals not cases! Our attorneys and staff are deeply committed to meeting the needs of our clients in a responsive, caring and respectful manner.

At The Pollan Law Firm, we know that our work can mean the difference between a life of hardship and one lived with comfort and dignity. It is our goal to help you find the solution best for your loved one's needs.
