Ravenell Law, LLC

Welcome to the Ravenell Law Firm

We are focused and dedicated to providing providing families with in depth services in the areas of Elder Law, Estate Planning and Asset protection. Our attorneys are experts in the field of Medicaid Asset Protection and related Trusts. Our firm is dedicated to helping protect seniors and their families by preserving dignity, quality of life, and financial security.

Using holistic and often proprietary approach, our firm uses a vast knowledge, understanding, and deep respect of the elderly to help our elderly clients obtain the highest quality care at the lowest possible cost, which typically involves protecting assets in order to become eligible to have Medicaid and/or Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits pay for the appropriate level of care – be it home health care, assisted living care, or nursing home care. Unfortunately, Medicaid eligibility rules are the most complex and confusing maze of legal rules in existence.

Attorney Evan Farr of the Farr Law Firm rightfully pointed out that the United States Supreme Court has called the Medicaid laws “an aggravated assault on the English language, resistant to attempts to understand it.” Schweiker v. Gray Panthers, 453 U.S. 34, 43 (1981). The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (just below the U.S. Supreme Court), in a case arising out of Virginia, has called the Medicaid Act one of the “most completely impenetrable texts within human experience” and “dense reading of the most tortuous kind.” Rehab. Association of Virginia v. Kozlowski, 42 F.3d 1444, 1450 (4th Cir. 1994). Veteran’s Aid and Attendance rules are likewise also exceedingly complicated and often treacherous to navigate.

The Ravenell Law firm can provide you with expert and experienced asset protection planning and in-depth representation in connection with Medicaid and Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits so you don’t wind up spending your entire life savings on long-term care, unnecessarily jeopardizing your future care, well-being and the financial security of your family.
