Plano Elder Law Attorneys

Your mom or dad needs care. Can you protect the house, and still qualify for Medicaid, without spending everything first?

That's the question almost every family asks us, and most have been told the answer is no. It isn't.

Medicaid planning is the legal way to get your parent the care they need without a nursing home taking the house and the savings. Miller Law Office walks you through it in plain language, step by step.

Flat fees, agreed up front, so you know exactly what it costs before you decide anything.

We respond to every call within one business day.

Here's what happens when you call

You'll talk to someone real.

We'll ask a few questions about your situation and what you're trying to protect.

Then connect you with the best attorney on our team who handles Medicaid and elder law every week.

No jargon. No pressure. No feeling small for asking what something means.

Just a clear conversation about getting your mom or dad cared for without losing everything they built.

Does This Sound Familiar?

You're trying to protect the house, and you keep hearing it could be lost to the cost of care.
You've been told the only way to get Medicaid is to spend almost everything first, and that can't be right.
A nursing home or assisted living is coming, and you have no real idea what it costs or how you'll pay for it.
Mom or dad can't really make decisions anymore, and you're not sure who's allowed to act for them.
You're trying to get a parent qualified for Medicaid, and you don't know where the process starts.
There's tension in the family about what to do, or someone you don't trust is getting involved.
You've called other places, and every one of them left you with a different answer.
More than anything, you don't want everything they worked for to go to a nursing home.

If any of that sounds like you, you're in the right place.

What Elder Law & Medicaid Planning Actually Means in Texas

What Estate Planning Actually Means in Texas

Aaron Miller, founder of Miller Law Office, puts it simply:

"Estate planning is what happens if you get sick and die. Elder law is what happens if you get sick and don't die."

That second one is where families get blindsided. In under four minutes, Aaron clears up the Medicaid-versus-Medicare confusion that costs families the most.

Prefer to read? Here's the short version.

A nursing home in Texas runs about $6,000 to $7,000 a month.

Memory care runs $7,200 to $7,500.

Most families assume Medicare covers it. It doesn't. Medicare stops paying after 100 days, and then the bills land on the family.

Medicaid can cover long-term care, but people are told they have to spend almost everything first, down to their last couple thousand dollars, before it kicks in.

That's the part that isn't fully true. It isn't about how much someone has. It's about how those assets are held, and which ones actually count.

An elder law attorney's whole job is helping convert what counts into what doesn't, legally, so a lifetime of savings doesn't vanish paying for care.

The catch?

Timing. Medicaid looks back 5 years at how money and property were moved.

Done wrong, or too late, and it can cost a family dearly.

Done early, and there's far more we can protect, the home included.

And here's what people don't expect to hear: it doesn't all have to go to the nursing home.

Depending on the situation, some of a sick spouse's income can actually go to support the healthy spouse at home. Families cry in our office when they learn that. It's the conversation we wish someone had had with our own family in time.

Why Miller Law Office

This work is personal for Aaron.

When he was a boy, his grandmother had a heart attack, and over the next year her memory started slipping.

Eventually his grandfather had to move her into a nursing home. For ten years he pulled out his wallet every single month and paid for her care. He was a farmer, no stranger to government benefits, but nobody ever told him there was a legal way to plan for any of it.

By the time she passed and his grandfather needed care too, the money was gone.

Aaron's father, aunt, and uncle drained their own retirement to cover it. Decades later, his dad is still driving a truck at 76. The family still feels it.

That's the whole reason this firm exists. Aaron has helped families with close to a million dollars in assets still qualify for the care they needed, because the law allows for it when you know how it works.

Why Miller Law Office

The Miller Law Office has been voted Best Law Firm in Plano four years running.

But the thing clients actually tell us matters is simpler: We answer the phone, we respond within one business day, and we never make you feel small for asking what something means.

You're not hiring one busy attorney's calendar. Aaron founded this firm and sets the standard. The whole team carries it, so you get the right person for your situation, and someone who knows your case is always reachable.
