Special Needs

Each individual and family is unique.  If you have a family member that is disabled, either physically or mentally, then a Special Needs trust or Supplemental Needs trust may be an appropriate solution.

A Special Needs trust or a Supplemental Needs trust is written so the disabled person (beneficiary) can enjoy the use of assets that are held in the trust for his or her benefit, without sacrificing essential needs-based government benefits.  The Special Needs trust also allows a trustee to hold and manage the assets for the benefit of the disabled person if they lack legal capacity to handle his or her own financial affairs.

The Special Needs trusts and Supplemental Needs trusts sometimes aid beneficiaries of qualifying for health care coverage under their state Medicaid programs and also may help in qualifying for cash payments from the Social Security Administration.
