Nursing Homes

Syracuse, New York Nursing Home Care Attorney - Free Initial Consultation

Custodial nursing home care cost averages around $7500 a month in central New York, and it is estimated that nearly fifty percent of elderly Americans will spend some time in a nursing home. At $7500 a month it would not take very long for most people’s life savings to dwindle away. I am dedicated to helping assure that people in need of nursing home care do not lose the wealth they have spent a life time creating.

I opened the McMahon Law Firm in 1992 with the needs of people like my parents in mind. I am committed to treating each of my clients with the kind of respect and dignity you would want to be given to your parents. My entire practice is devoted to elder law issues, such as securing Medicaid to pay for nursing home expenses.

Medicaid is a government program designed to pay for nursing home expenses for people below a certain asset level. I have been handling Medicaid eligibility issues for over twelve years. I have the experience to structure your assets in a way that will make you eligible to have your nursing home expenses covered by Medicaid.

Failing to plan for nursing home expenses can cost you and your heirs the wealth you have spent a lifetime creating. While you may have had a will drafted, it will not protect your wealth from being depleted by nursing home expenses. A Syracuse, NY lawyer experienced in Medicaid law can prepare you for nursing home care costs while preserving a majority of your wealth in trusts, deeds, and directed gifting of assets.

I have helped hundreds of individuals and families protect their life savings from the high cost of nursing home care. If you (or a member of your family) are in a nursing home or may need future care, please contact Steve McMahon at the McMahon Law Firm. I represent clients throughout upstate New York including Onondaga, Cayuga, Oswego, and Oneida counties, as well as the cities of Syracuse, Camillus, and Auburn.
