Vandalia, OH Elder Law
Vandalia Elder Law Attorneys
Known as the “Crossroads of America” due to its location on the National Road and the Dixie Highway, Vandalia has a population of about 16,000. While retaining its small-town feel, Vandalia has big-city amenities. In particular, Vandalia boasts a state-of-the-art Recreation Center with features geared toward every age group: an indoor water park, a fitness center, and a climbing wall, to name a few. When the heat of summer rolls around, the Cassel Hills Swimming Pool keeps kids and adults alike cool. For those who look forward to a game of golf, the Cassel Hills Golf Course was named one of the “100 Must Play Courses in Ohio” by Golf Styles Magazine.
The Vandalia Senior Citizens center offers a plethora of activities for the slightly older crowd, bringing fellowship and fun along with crafting, travel opportunities, and lots of special events. Whether golfing, swimming, crafting, or cooling off in the water, Vandalia residents must take the time to plan for the future. While few of us look forward to estate planning, it is necessary, particularly if we are approaching our “golden years.” As with most things in life, planning for the future is rarely as painful as we imagine. Having an experienced Vandalia elder law attorney to help you makes it even simpler.

Is Your Elder Law Attorney Skilled in Medicaid for Nursing Home Care?
Medicaid planning may well be one of the most important planning tools used by an elder law attorney. The substantial cost of nursing home care can quickly wipe out assets you’ve spent a lifetime acquiring, leaving no inheritance for your loved ones. Medicaid is the most common alternative to paying for nursing home care. Unfortunately, Medicaid rules can be a complex issue for seniors requiring long-term care. The fact that Medicaid laws change fairly often can result in the process being truly overwhelming. Having attorneys who have the skills, knowledge, and experience in Medicaid services can make a huge difference for you and your future.
Medicaid assists low-income individuals in paying for medically necessary medical services—including nursing home care. Certain assets are excluded when calculating your resources, however, it is easy for any savings you have to be wiped out before Medicaid begins paying for the cost of a nursing home. This is why Medicaid planning is so important. At Lovett & House, we will help you plan ahead so your assets will not be wiped out by necessary long-term care. We take into consideration the Medicaid “look back” period when determining which assets can be transferred. Even if you have not planned ahead for nursing home care and Medicaid qualification, we can help you with “crisis” Medicaid planning tools.
