What is special needs planning and why is it important?

Special needs planning involves creating estate planning strategies for families with disabled beneficiaries to protect their eligibility for government benefits like SSI and Medicaid. Special needs trusts can provide supplemental support without disqualifying beneficiaries from essential programs. This type of planning helps families ensure their loved ones receive both government assistance and additional resources for quality of life improvements.
