THE PLAIN ENGLISH ATTORNEY

Autism is the fastest growing serious developmental disability in the United States, costing families an average of $60,000.00 annually. While the economic cost is astounding, the more alarming statistics are how common Autism has become. While you are in the middle of taking your child to swim practice, doing laundry, and preparing your family’s meals, planning for the future seems like a far-off project. The thinking is “we don’t know what tomorrow holds-we need to take this day by day”. While such a mindset is understandable, it is important to realize the danger of not planning. As the old saying goes, “we don’t plan to fail; we fail to plan.”

It is important to know that you are not alone in your struggle. One in 88 Children (1 in 54 boys) will face the battle with Autism. In the middle of the emotional battle and all of the trials of daily life, the last thing you should worry about is coordinating a search for special needs estate planning information.

The rules and regulations related to special needs planning are constantly changing. What may be the case today (such as the $2,000.00 limit for Medicaid) may not be true tomorrow and the rules can put you in a bad position if not monitored closely. There are many aspects to consider in creating estate plans while keeping the rules in mind, and plans may have to change as the rules do. Thankfully, with the right professional care and guidance, Autism will not to be a restricting factor in securing your child’s financial future. With so many complications and fears of losing benefits, the least of your worries should be having to reach for a legal dictionary to understand a professional’s advice. Understanding the issues can be made much easier if you had a conversation rather than attending a legal lecture full of code citations and court case references.
