A special needs trust can be a very powerful aid in managing care for a family member with a disability. It can provide supplemental items like therapy, respite care, dental work, companions, entertainment, education -- all without interfering with the beneficiary's SSI, Medicaid or other government programs. The special needs trust can be a flexible tool. To get a learn more and/or to get a free copy of Trustee Handbook, huse the following link.

If you seek out an attorney to prepare a Special Needs Trust, you may want to make sure he/or she does not try to divert you into a regular trust, unless that meets your specific need. You will benefit most by selecting an attorney who is well versed with Elder Law, Special Needs Trust and Rights of Those with Disabilities. Often times, attorneys will give you a first time free consultation. Ask for it!
