You should have given your assets away more than five years ago. Your only option now is to spend everything until you are broke.

Greg Walker has spent 50 years practicing law in Louisiana and has devoted a substantial part of his legal career to Medicaid Long Term Care planning and nursing home asset-protection strategies.
While many attorneys are only recently entering this area of practice, Greg has been helping Louisiana families address nursing home financial crises for many years. Few attorneys in Louisiana have handled more successful Medicaid Long Term Care nursing home benefit applications with no pre-planning than Greg.
Walker Law Group, LLC helps families lawfully protect assets, preserve financial security, and avoid unnecessary nursing home impoverishment using frequently unknown medicaid rules and regulations.
Many families are incorrectly told that nothing can be done once nursing home admission becomes necessary. In reality, experienced Medicaid planning attorneys may still be able to implement lawful planning techniques that preserve significant assets while helping the applicant qualify for Medicaid Long Term Care benefits sooner. Greg has helped hundreds of clients successfully address their Nursing Home Crisis saving substantial assets.
Medicaid Long Term Care eligibility rules are extremely technical and constantly changing. Louisiana Medicaid planning is even more complex because Louisiana’s unique civil law system creates planning opportunities and legal issues not found in other states.
In Louisiana, only a very limited number of attorneys possess the training, experience, and working knowledge necessary to navigate the complex maze of Medicaid eligibility rules, transfer penalties, asset classifications, spousal protections, usufruct laws, and asset-preservation techniques involved in Nursing Home Crisis Planning.
No two cases are exactly alike. Effective planning requires careful legal analysis, experience, and a thorough understanding of both federal Medicaid law and Louisiana-specific Medicaid regulations.
Greg Walker has guided hundreds of families through these issues during some of the most stressful periods of their lives.
Louisiana’s civil law system creates legal considerations that many non-specialized attorneys do not fully understand.
Even well-intentioned mistakes can delay nursing home benefits eligibility and cause devastating financial losses.
Nursing home employees and admissions staff are not trained in advanced Medicaid asset-protection planning or elder law legal strategies. This type of advice can only be obtained from experienced attorneys with specialized knowledge and understanding of complex Medicaid rules and regulations.
Families are often told that they must simply spend down before help becomes available.
This is rarely true.
With an experiences Medicaid planning attorney, lawful options may still exist to preserve substantial assets and reduce unnecessary financial depletion.
Because of highly technical and frequently changing, Medicaid Long Term Care rules, families should seek advice from an attorney experienced in Medicaid Long Term Care planning before making gifts, transfers, or other financial decisions that could deny eligibility.
