Elder law often gets confused with elements of estate planning, such as drafting a last will and testament, creating trusts, and determining power of attorney.
While it's true that those processes are often part of elder law, estate planning is not relegated to older people. A 20-year-old has just as much need for a will as a 93-year-old.
Although the umbrella of elder law does cover some estate planning elements, it also covers other unique legal processes reserved for the elderly. For example, an elder law attorney understands elder abuse laws and can help a senior citizen protect their rights if they suffer from abuse at the hands of a caregiver. An elder law attorney will also be familiar with senior-exclusive programs such as Medicaid and can help elderly individuals receive the care and treatment they need for various issues.

At Johnson/Turner Legal, we believe that everyone deserves to live out their golden years with grace. As the saying goes, "age is a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." We help our elderly clients feel empowered to live life to the fullest.
