Special or supplemental needs trusts maximize the resources available to a person with special needs while preserving their public benefits eligibility. Essentially, trusts enhance your loved one's quality of life.
Besides what government benefits cover, including food, shelter, and medical care, trusts cover all the other things that might make life better for your loved one. Consequently, special needs trusts work for many people, including people with temporary or permanent special needs and people who may someday have a disability.
The law also allows for the establishment of sub-accounts in a pooled special needs trust. We help in drafting trusts that meet your specific needs, including settlement trusts.
