Special Needs Trusts

Worried about what becomes of your beloved special needs child––even if an adult––when you can no longer care for your child yourself? Protect your child through a Special Needs Trust.

Michigan Special Needs Trusts

Government programs provide for special needs children, but strict limitations may disqualify a child. Worse yet: if you leave an inheritance or win a lawsuit, that can be enough to deny eligibility.

There is a solution, and at EstateGenius, we create this solution through a Special Needs Trust. We strategically create a trust so your child lives comfortably long after you are no longer here.

Benefit 1: Supplement Your Child’s Needs

With a Third-Party Special Needs Trust, you transfer your assets or money into the trust and can then supplement your child’s financial resources without penalty.

Your child may qualify for government programs like Supplemental Security Income (SSI), subsidized housing, vocational rehabilitation, or Medicaid. These can go a long way to secure your child’s living standards. But you can do more through a third-party Special Needs Trust. The assets of the trust benefit your child but do not negatively affect government programs.

Benefit 2: Secure a Settlement or Judgment Award

With a First Person Special Needs Trust, you transfer funds belonging to the child into the trust without it disqualifying the child from government programs.

When your child settles or wins a lawsuit, the funds from that award can be safely transferred to a first-party Special Needs Trusts. These trusts are set up to receive such funds so that the money may be held and managed in a way that will not disqualify the child from government assistance.

Benefit 3: Peace of Mind

With a Special Needs Trust, you can do more than financially secure your child’s future after you are not here, and that can give you a great deal of peace.

Parents worry about their children and this concern may be especially true with special needs children. A Special Needs Trust does many things, like securing financial resources without disrupting government programs. It also provides another important benefit. You can appoint a trustee whom you trust and who will, by the very nature of being a trustee, look out for your child.
