Comprehensive Estate and Medicaid
Planning Evaluations
|
|
The Weber Law Offices begins its representation of
many clients with a comprehensive estate and long term care
planning evaluation. This evaluation process provides the best
planning strategies to pursue to meet the objectives of the client.
The complex and ever-evolving rules of Medicaid are taking on an
increasingly important role with respect to traditional estate
planning concerns. A knowledge of elder law, therefore, is
absolutely critical for a truly comprehensive estate evaluation and
plan.

Medicaid Advocacy
|
|
The Weber Law Offices also
prepares and submits the Medicaid application and related
documents to the
appropriate governmental agency. The Medicaid rules vary significantly from state to state, and Ms.
Weber is licensed in both Kansas and Missouri. At the client’s
request, the firm handles all communications with the Medicaid
agency, thereby removing the client as much as possible from
the tedious and sometimes frustrating application process.
Often, the state’s goal is to limit the amount of benefits
paid, and the firm advocates for its clients, assisting them
with the Medicaid qualification process, including “division
of assets.” In addition, the firm represents clients in
connection with Medicaid appeals at administrative and court
hearings. Karen H. Weber is committed to representing her
clients with
integrity, honesty, and confidentiality.

Guardianship and Conservatorship Services
|
|
The Weber Law Offices also
represents clients seeking guardianship and conservatorship of
relatives who can no longer manage their personal or financial
affairs. Alternatives and options to consider are also
provided.

Special Needs
Planning
|
|
The Weber Law Offices assists
clients with disabilities by legally planning for their long
term needs. The firm provides information about planning
options, drafts supplemental needs trusts and other documents,
and advises trustees of trusts for the benefit of disabled
persons concerning trust administration. The firm also advises the parents or other
family members of disabled persons on how they can effectively
provide for their loved one, with careful regard for
preserving eligibility for Medicaid and other public
entitlements.
