Helping You Protect Your Loved One With Special Needs

Families with disabled loved ones must plan for the future very carefully. How assets are left after your death can have a tremendous impact on the quality of life for that person. In the past, a Will may have been enough, but times have changed. To protect a person with special needs, a well-defined estate plan in Arkansas is vital.

For clients caring for a loved one with special needs, the Quraishi Law Firm can create special-needs trusts. Our team of special-needs lawyers in Arkansas can help protect our clients’ assets for the future benefit of their disabled loved one while ensuring he or she will still be eligible for government benefits.

How a Special Needs Trust Works

A Special Needs Trust allows a parent, grandparent or guardian to provide funds for a disabled child without disrupting the child’s eligibility for government aid. Setting one up is a fairly simple process. Important points to remember while investigating the use of this estate planning tool are:

Decide on an appropriate guardian for your child
Determine who would be a suitable Trustee(s) to manage the Trust’s assets and supervise your child’s finances
Outline instructions for your child’s education, housing, personal and emotional needs
