The firm's core practice covers the full arc of elder law and estate planning: wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney, health care proxies, and Medicaid planning for individuals facing nursing home or home care costs. These are not off-the-shelf documents. Every plan is built around the client's actual assets, family structure, and long-term care concerns.
Beyond document preparation, DDSS, LLP guides families through Medicaid applications and asset protection strategies that must be put in place well before a care facility becomes necessary. The firm also handles estate administration, walking executors and trustees through probate and trust settlement when a loved one passes. Guardianship proceedings and special needs planning round out the practice for families with more complex situations.
For clients who come in unsure where to start, the initial consultation is designed to map the full picture before recommending any specific product or strategy. You leave knowing exactly what you have, what you're missing, and what the next step should be.
