SPECIAL NEEDS ESTATE PLANNING
with
Kevin G. Staker, Esq.

Every family should have an estate plan. If yours includes a family member with a mental health disability who receives SSI and medical benefits, you may find it necessary to set up a Special Needs Trust.  

Such a trust can provide for the special needs of our loved ones when we are no longer there to organize and advocate on their behalf. It is essential that we start planning now for the coordination of the legal, financial, and care components that will provide for the maintenance of the quality of life and dignity of the beneficiary of the plan.

Kevin Staker is an attorney with a Tax & Estate Planning Law practice in Camarillo.

A Family Support Group is held at this location prior to the General Meeting,
from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm

All General Meetings are Free and Open to the Public
