Elder Law Attorneys Protect the Rights, Health, and Dignity of Seniors Throughout Florida

Elder law is a concentrated field of legal practice that addresses the issues faced by the fastest-growing segment of the population — seniors. This comprehensive practice area encompasses a range of legal matters affecting older people or individuals with special needs and disabilities, including estate planning (wills and trusts), long-term care planning (Medicaid and long-term-care facility planning), guardianship proceedings, probate/estate and trust administration, and other important matters.

Our seasoned elder law attorneys at RTRLAW understand the intricacies of Elder Law, offering an expansive suite of services tailored for seniors and their family members, including:

• Long-Term Care Planning: Helping families and seniors prepare for long-term medical care at home or at an assisted living or nursing/rehabilitation facility, while minimizing the financial strain on the family.
• Estate Planning: Drafting wills, trusts, and advance directives, which protect an individual’s or couple’s assets and specify end-of-life wishes.
• Medicaid Planning: Providing expert navigation through the complexities of Medicaid, securing government benefits while safeguarding assets.
• Guardianship and Conservatorship: Helping families through the last-resort procedure of appointing a legal guardian or conservator when a senior or disabled person is no longer able to make financial, medical or personal decisions for themselves.
• Elder Abuse Advocacy: Serving as an advocate for seniors facing fraud or exploitation and defending against physical, emotional, or financial abuse.

As the twilight years unfold, they should be marked by peace and fulfillment, not ensnared by the complexities of legal dilemmas. Across the state of Florida, RTRLAW is your stalwart partner in traversing the multifaceted realm of Elder Law. Our mission is crystal clear: To ensure our senior clients can enjoy their golden years, free from turmoil, safeguarded by the law, and treated with the utmost respect and dignity they’ve earned.

Proactive Long-Term Care Planning

One of the most daunting prospects in your elder years is the potential need for ongoing medical care, home care or assisted living. RTRLAW adeptly guides families through the intricate process of planning for long-term care, helping to secure quality care without exhausting financial resources. From navigating insurance benefits to understanding the rights afforded to your loved ones under Florida law, RTRLAW is by your side.

Guardianship as a Last Resort

Ideally, seniors, people with disabilities, and their families should plan ahead for the possibility of declining health through the use of estate planning (wills, trusts and advance directives that name individuals who can make decisions on your behalf should you become incapacitated). If you don’t have these documents in place, your family may need to turn to a legal guardianship proceeding to ensure your proper health care and protection of assets if your health and cognitive function declines. At RTRLAW, we look upon this as a last-resort solution, preferring to assist our clients well in advance of the need of guardianship. Our compassionate estate planning attorneys approach such cases with proficiency and care, ensuring a seamless shift in decision-making responsibility, all the while maintaining the dignity and respect of our clients and their family members.

The Nuances of Estate Planning

Estate planning is paramount in safeguarding your legacy and easing the emotional and financial burdens on family members. Our legal team is experienced in crafting comprehensive will- or trust-based plans that honor your wishes and protect your assets, all in compliance with Florida’s legal statutes.

Medicaid Planning Assistance

Navigating federal benefit programs can be a complex labyrinth. Our elder attorneys are adept at demystifying Medicaid and other government programs, helping you or your loved ones receive the full range of benefits entitled under the law while preserving your hard-earned assets for your own long-term care or future generations.

Advocating Against Elder Abuse

Arguably the most abhorrent offenses are those committed against the defenseless, particularly our esteemed elders. RTRLAW stands as a bulwark against all forms of elder abuse. We tirelessly advocate for victims, seeking justice against perpetrators and establishing safeguards to prevent future exploitation or harm.
