HOW DO I ENSURE MY SPECIAL
NEEDS CHILD WON'T LOSE HIS
PUBLIC BENEFITS?
Often, parents of children with special needs disinherit the disabled child to ensure public benefits won’t be lost---thinking that other family members will take care of the special needs child. This approach is unsound and can be easily corrected with a Special Needs Trust.
A Special Needs Trust can manage an inheritance without disqualifying a child from receiving public benefits. Moreover, certain types of Special Needs Trust can be set up so that parents, grandparents and other family members can gift into them over time.
