In this article, our Lincoln Park special needs lawyers explain how Special Needs Trusts are used in planning for the care of individuals with special needs. If someone has a disability in Illinois, they are commonly entitled to Supplemental Security Income if they have less than $2,000 in assets and earn under the maximum amount as described by SSI guidelines.
Our Lincoln Park special needs attorneys will help you create a Special Needs Trust to ensure that your loved one with a disability can gain assets and income without reduction of benefits.
