Special Needs Planning
Special Needs Planning encompasses the holistic planning needs of an individual with a disability.

It also includes estate and benefit planning for the individual, often through the use of a Supplemental Needs Trust. In addition, the Pierro Law Group Special Needs attorneys can assist with the application for Medicaid benefits and advocacy through other government agencies.
