I have been working on making this web site more user friendly. Let me know if there is some way that I could improve it.

Tax season is over, but seniors who have not filed a 2007 income tax return should still do it. The IRS says that the refunds should start coming out in May, CLICK HERE, http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=177937,00.html to be transferred to the IRS website for the lastest rebate information. For the IRS calculator to see how much of a rebate you will be getting, CLICK HERE:  http://www.irs.gov/app/espc/

For those of you that are here because you have a loved one that has become ill and needs nursing home placement, I recommend starting by clicking the tab "MassHealth Info" and then going to the "Library" to search for articles that fit your situation.

For those of you that are here to find information on saving your hard earned assets from the costs of a nursing home, you might want to start at "Saving the Home" and then read "MassHealth Info" for background information.

And now a little about who we are.

The Elder Law Center is a Massachusetts community based law firm that specializes in protecting the rights of the elderly who require nursing home placement. Our attorneys assist families by developing plans to protect the families assets and get Medicaid (MassHealth in Massachusetts) coverage as soon as possible. We also provide estate planning and income tax preparation services.

 Elder Law Center is the merger of Elder Law lawyers Ronald H. Surabian, CPA, LL.M and Joseph V. Ananian who combined their practices to deliver a comprehensive service of Elder Law, estate planning, accounting and tax to their clients.

After consideration of all the facts in your case during a personal meeting, and payment and acceptance of a retainer, will an attorney client relationship begin. Likewise, electronic mail to Elder Law Center through this site cannot be guaranteed to be confidential and does not create an attorney-client relationship.
