The Law Office of Sean W. Scott has been practicing Elder Law and qualifying our clients for Medicaid for over 30 years. While we do practice in all areas of Estate Planning (I.e.; Durable Power of Attorney, Health Care Surrogate, Will, etc.) we also pride ourselves on having a 100% accuracy rate on getting clients approved for Medicaid. Why Medicaid? You may ask. Do you want to pay up to $16,000/ month for a nursing home should the time come? Obviously, no one wants to have to endure this cost. So, even though you may have planned well for retirement the reality is things happen. Even if you’re in a great position to have someone come into your home 24 hours/day and take care of you, you’re still looking at a minimum of about $14,000/month. So, when to being planning. It’s never too soon! You need to make sure your income and assets are protected so that you can take care of you and your loved ones. You may have a checking and savings account and you may have that plus investments in real estate, stocks, bonds, etc. Florida law is very specific on how and what is protected and how to protect it.
We are also very passionate about our Alzheimer’s and Dementia clients and spend a great deal of our time and efforts on helping to educate and facilitate clients on what the next best steps are. We provide a plethora of resources for them and the community at large. We host monthly seminars and frequently speak at various Dementia support groups.

“I cared for my father until his passing at 99 years of age. During that time, I experienced the raging river of emotions that comes with caring for a family member. Overwhelmed and drowning, I navigated toward a more sustainable caregiving experience. I founded Sustainable Caregiving and work with fellow family caregivers to help them navigate their caregiving journey. With humor and vulnerability, I share my story, struggles, and strategies in my book, Navigating the Caregiver River: A Journey to Sustainable Caregiving.”
