Elder Law is a legal term coined to cover an area of legal practice that places an emphasis on the number of issues that affect the growing aging populous of various social communities.

The three major categories that make up elder law are:

  • Estate planning and administration, including tax questions;
  • Medicaid, disability and other long-term care issues; and
  • Guardianship, conservatorship and commitment matters, including fiduciary administration.

Other issues found under the umbrella of ELDER LAW include such areas as Estate Planning; Wills; Trusts; Guardianships; protection against Elder abuse, neglect, and fraud; end of life planning; all levels of disability and medical care; retirement planning; Social Security benefits; Medicare & Medicaid coverage; Consumer Protection; Nursing Homes & In-Home Care; Powers of Attorney; Physicians Directives; Landlord/Tennant needs; Real Estate and Mortgage assistance; various levels of advice, counseling and avocation of rights; tax issues and discrimination.
