It’s a legal tool that allows a disabled individual to receive financial support without losing access to public benefits like Medicaid or SSI.
Parents, grandparents, or guardians of individuals with special needs often create these trusts to plan for long-term care after they’re gone.
No-the funds must be managed by a trustee. This helps ensure that distributions don’t interfere with the beneficiary’s eligibility for benefits.
It can cover supplemental needs like education, transportation, therapy, recreation, and personal items-things not covered by government programs.
A first-party trust is funded with the beneficiary’s own assets (like a legal settlement), while a third-party trust is funded by someone else. We’ll help determine the best fit for your situation.
