In this episode of Eldercare Illuminated, Torchlight’s VP of Product, Attorney Carolyn Romano chats with Elder Law Attorney, Harry Margolis, about how planning for short- or long-term care needs can protect family assets. In addition to learning what to do today to begin preparing for a loved one's future (or your own), you'll also find out how an Elder Law Attorney can help your family: 1) address the complexities presented by government programs and entitlements, such as Medicare and Medicaid; 2) understand the options seniors and their families have in the evolving regulatory environment; and, 3) how families can still find solutions in a crisis, even if little planning has been done beforehand.
