Medicaid eligiblity 

For married couples, even during a crisis, we can often save all of the couple’s assets and obtain medicaid benefits within 90 days. For single individuals, their options are more limited but asset protection is still possible using medicaid laws.  Call us today for more information.

medicaid planning 

Many people believe that a person must "spend down" all their assets or give them away five years before applying for medicaid. This is not true. With some basic planning, most people can preserve their assets and qualify for medicaid benefits.  Contact the Weeks Law Firm.  We can help.

medicaid applications

The Weeks Law Firm can help you or a loved one successfully apply for medicaid.  You are required to apply for benefits with the Department of Health and Human Services in the county where the applicant will receive care and assistance.  We can help you successfully navigate this critical process and get the help you or your loved one need.  

medicaid appeals

You have the right to an appeal if your application for medicaid is denied.  Contact the Weeks Law Firm immediately.  We will review your application and fight for you.  

Miller trusts

If you or a loved one have monthly income that exceeds the medicaid income cap, the income in excess of the cap can be placed into a miller trust and spent on permissable expenditures.  The Weeks Law Firm can evaluate your income levels and advise you or your loved one on whether this option is the right tool for your family.
