Long-term care is expensive, but losing everything to pay for it doesn’t have to be your story. We help protect your home, your savings, and your dignity with smart planning that works in both states.
You’ve worked hard to build a life and legacy. But the reality is that a sudden need for assisted living or nursing home care could wipe out your savings in just a few months.
In Florida and New York, long-term care can cost over $100,000 per year. Medicare won’t cover it for long, and strict asset rules complicate Medicaid eligibility.
That’s where we come in. At Thomas D. Shanahan, P.A., we help LGBTQ+ families and snowbirds protect what they’ve earned while qualifying for the care they need. Whether you’re planning ahead or already facing a crisis, we can guide you.

Planning for long-term care goes beyond finances. It’s about protecting your quality of life and easing the burden on your loved ones. Here are some tools we may use:
Allows you to qualify for Medicaid without losing your home or retirement savings. Assets are preserved for your family instead of being spent down on care.
Transfers assets out of your name while keeping your wishes in place. Designed to avoid the five-year Medicaid lookback pitfalls.
Ensure someone you trust can make financial and medical decisions for you if you become incapacitated.
Legal and financial strategies to meet Medicaid limits while compensating family members or managing expenses legally.
These tools work together to protect your assets, ease the Medicaid process, and ensure your wishes are followed when it matters most.
When Daniel’s wife needed full-time nursing care in Florida, the bills came fast. The facility cost over $9,000 per month, and Medicare only covered a short stay. Daniel was told they had to drain their savings to qualify for Medicaid.
Terrified of losing their home and their financial future, Daniel called our office.
We created a legal strategy that protected their home, preserved enough income for Daniel to live on, and helped his wife qualify for Medicaid within months.
Stories like theirs are why we do this work. Whether you’re planning in advance or already in the middle of a crisis, there are steps you can take to protect what matters.

Whether at home or in a facility, your plan ensures you receive the quality care you need without financial devastation.
Planning ahead gives you control and options. Waiting for a crisis can leave you scrambling with fewer choices.
