Protect Your Assets - Navigate Medicaid with Confidence

Let The Lebowski Law Firm, P.C. guide you through the complexities of the Medicaid process and help you maximize the benefits available to you or your loved one.

Without proper planning, a family can quickly spend down a lifetime of savings. But under Michigan Medicaid rules, there are many legal strategies available that allow families to preserve assets while still qualifying for long-term care coverage.

How We Can Help
At The Lebowski Law Firm, P.C., we offer tailored Medicaid planning and long-term care solutions, including:
• Strategic spend-down planning
• Crisis Medicaid planning for immediate nursing home situations
• Pre-planning with trusts and gifting strategies
• Asset protection trusts and exempt transfers
• Maximizing the Community Spouse Resource Allowance 
• Use of Medicaid-compliant annuities and caregiver agreements
• Medicaid application preparation 
• Avoiding or minimizing estate recovery after death

Let Our Firm Guide You Through the Medicaid Maze

Michigan's Medicaid program offers critical benefits for long-term care, but eligibility rules are technical, strict, and frequently changing. The Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) applies the Bridges Eligibility Manual (BEM); a dense and often misunderstood set of policies that govern asset limits, income caps, divestment penalties, and much more.

Navigating these rules requires much more than filling out a form.

You Don’t Have to Lose Everything

Michigan law offers families many tools to protect wealth, even if a nursing home admission is already underway. Whether you’re a healthy spouse trying to preserve assets, an adult child caring for a parent, or someone planning ahead, we’ll work with you to develop a customized legal strategy that meets your needs and ensures your loved one gets the proper care. 

We don’t just explain the law, we implement it effectively. Our firm has firsthand experience administering these plans, and we know what works in real-world Medicaid cases.

We Can Help – Whether You're Planning Ahead or In Crisis

No matter where you are in the process, we’re here to help.
• Planning Ahead? We’ll help you build a strong foundation with the right legal documents and asset protection tools, so you’re ready if care is ever needed.
• In Crisis? If a loved one has already entered a nursing home or is about to, we can take immediate action to preserve assets, qualify for Medicaid or other benefits, and avoid financial devastation. 

Whether you’re single, married, or helping a parent or loved one there is a lot that can be done; even at the last minute.

Don't Risk Your Medicaid Eligibility

Too often, families spend down assets unnecessarily or make well-meaning decisions that accidentally delay eligibility or result in costly penalties. Improper transfers or gifts can disqualify a Medicaid beneficiary and result in a significant period of ineligibility for Medicaid benefits. Don’t let that happen to you.

The team at The Lebowski Law Firm, P.C. will ensure your loved one will qualify for Medicaid while protecting your lifetime of hard work.
