Special Needs Trusts

At Greenfield Elder Law, we help families protect their Medicaid recipient’s countable assets while ensuring eligibility for Medicaid.  A Special Needs Trust allows individuals to receive gifts or maintain assets without losing access to Medicaid and other vital public benefits.

Our Special Needs Trust services include:

First Party Special Needs Trusts: For Medicaid applicants under age 65 to preserve eligibility by transferring their own assets into a trust.

Third Party Special Needs Trusts: For family members or friends to give funds to a Medicaid recipient without jeopardizing their benefits.

Testamentary Special Needs Trusts: Ensures inheritances for disabled loved ones are properly structured to avoid disqualifying them from Medicaid and other public benefits.

Greenfield Elder Law will guide you through the creation and administration of these trusts, helping you safeguard your loved one’s future while maintaining essential care and services.
