Disability Lawyers in Nashville, TN
Plan ahead. Protect what matters most.
Planning for a loved one with disabilities takes a clear strategy and a strong grasp of how benefits, assets, and long-term care work together, right here in Tennessee.
At Elder Law of Nashville, our disability lawyers help families in Franklin and throughout the Nashville area create legally sound plans. We will protect your government benefits while building a plan that supports your loved one’s long-term needs and your family’s overarching goals.
Plan for Your Family’s Future Today
Protect your loved one’s quality of life. In Tennessee, Medicaid (TennCare) has strict asset limits (just $2,000 for an individual), which means even a small inheritance can jeopardize eligibility.
With the right structure in place, you can provide financial support while preserving access to the benefits your loved one depends on.
What Is a Special Needs Trust?
A special needs trust allows you to set aside assets for a person with disabilities without affecting eligibility for benefits like Medicaid or SSI. Funds can be used for approved expenses such as medical care, education, and daily living needs.
