Sometimes, giving money directly to a family member with special needs can accidentally cut off their SSI, Medicaid, or other benefits. They might be seen as having too much money to qualify.

We can plan so that this doesn’t happen. A well-set-up special needs or supplemental trust can make sure your loved one keeps their benefits. The trust can cover extra expenses or needs that those government benefits don’t touch, without being counted as a resource by government agencies.
