Prodeje79 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I am not sure if anyone is familiar with this sort of situation. Grandma may be going to a nursing home in the near future. Want to see if not too late to take steps to protect her assets from Medicaid when/if she enrolls. I know about the 5 year lookback in transfers of assets. Any first hand experience or contacts appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sully Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Bill Browning. I used him to help me with my great-grandmother's asset/medicaid situation a few years ago. We didn't lose anything after it was all said and done.

nurkvinny Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 We are going through this right now. I'll have my wife post what she has found out / steps taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodeje79 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Thanks everyone! Sully: I spoke with one of Browning's partners, Richard Meyer. He sent me his intake sheet, and his credentials (like Brownings) are impressive. Is anyone comfortable advising of the costs paid (or will pay)? I have one quote from a lawyer for $1000. Meyer quoted $2500 flat fee, I am really curious what Brownings was if you will share. I have an appointment next week for a free consultation with a 3rd lawyer contact near el vaquero on riverside dr too.... mr randall http://www.krc-law.com/ I've heard its not a good idea to skimp out and get a cheap lawyer, but we cannot afford to get ripped off either. Dang why did I not do the prepaid legal plan at nationwide annual enrollment!!! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
