So much of a client's high or low opinion of an organization depends on their welcomed feeling. I felt that every time I visited the office, every person I talked with listened and took action on my concern or questions! They were also very friendly.

From phone calls to signing the final documents I was treated with respect, kindness, and understanding by Wayne & Jenn. Every business that wants their business represented well should have someone like Jenn & Wayne. They both made me feel relaxed and assured I was at the right place at the right time at this time in my life.

This Avvo rating is killer and so deserved! You are the best brother! The only thing is I think the 10 rating is too low, in my book you go to 11! Congratulations on the award, you should be very very proud. See you at your Holiday party, thx for the invite.

Medicaid and Nursing Home Planning

Nursing home costs are averaging $74,000 annually. It’s difficult to imagine how you’ll pay for long-term care. Trying to qualify for government benefits such as Medicaid possibly means decreasing your estate size by more than half. By working with our Grand Forks, ND Estate Planning attorneys, we can provide you with Medicaid Planning and Nursing Home Planning services, so that you qualify for government assistance like Medicaid without having to deplete your estate.

By including a Medicaid and Nursing Home Plan into your Estate Plan, you can set into motion several triggers, which will move your assets around so that you qualify for Medicaid when the time arises.
