When Should You Plan
There are two categories of Medicaid Planning. They are crisis planning and pre‐need planning.
Crisis Planning
This is for people facing an imminent need for long‐term care, whether it be Alzheimer’s, nursing home, or other care. Because of the intensive nature of legal work involved, this type of planning tends to be more expensive than pre‐need planning.
Pre-Need Medicaid Planning
The best way to plan for long‐term care is to do so well before the need arises. Beginning early enough allows you to take advantage of the five-year look‐back period, among other benefits.
Why Plan NOW (And Not Tomorrow):
- Gives you time to find alternatives to pay for care, so you can preserve hard‐earned assets
- Allows you to keep all or most of your assets, rather than making avoidable payments for care
- To leave your loved ones what you’ve worked a lifetime for
- Makes the most of Medicaid’s safe harbor provisions
- Medicaid eligibility is very complex and the rules change frequently. Even simple errors can result in a denial of benefits. We can take care of this for you.
- Ensure you have control over your future care and certain other decisions

Anyone Can Be Potentially at Risk of Lawsuits
Though many believe that doctors and celebrities are the only ones likely to be targeted in lawsuits, anyone can be at risk. The possibility that you will be sued or have fraudulent claims or frivolous lawsuits brought against your collected resources is always there.
This is why it is essential to have the guidance of an experienced asset protection attorney.
At Your Legacy Legal Care, we are prepared to use tried-and-true methods to reduce your chances of being sued under the following types of lawsuits, should they be levied against you:
- Malpractice liability claims
- Personal liability lawsuits brought by former business associates
- Premises liability suits for personal injury
- Personal injury suits for liability in vehicular accidents
- Liability resulting from misconduct or criminal behavior
- Liability for being a guarantor of someone else’s debts
- Fraudulent claims that cannot be disproven
- Claims made by a present or former partner or spouse
Our Houston asset protection attorneys work hard to ensure your accumulated wealth is safe and that your future and the futures of those you love are protected.
Suppose you are helping an elderly relative protect their assets. In that case, you may also want to ensure that your loved one does not mistakenly give money to a scam artist or spend it on sweepstakes or unreasonable purchases.
In other words, we can help you preserve your family’s accumulated wealth from your relative’s declining ability to make rational decisions.
