Via the Wills and Trusts Prof blog, Bernard Krooks, a New York lawyer who spoke very persuasively on long term care planning at the 2012 KC Estate Planning Symposium, has this article in Forbes on a new provision to allow military veterans and active service members to start special needs trusts for their severely disabled children, to ensure their families receive better care. Great idea, advocated by Sen. Jerry Moran, who hails from the great state of Kansas (my home state).
If our law firm, Johnson Law KC LLC, can help you and your family with a special needs trust to provide for your family member, please call (913-707-9220) or email us (steve@johnsonlawkc.com) for a convenient appointment.
