Family Caregiver Legal Roadmap
Ideal For: Adult children or spouses caring for an elderly loved one at home or in a facility.
What We’ll Do:
Caregiving without proper legal protections can be a financial and emotional minefield.
In this session, we’ll clarify what legal documents should already be in place (or need to be updated), how to get compensated as a caregiver (if appropriate), and how to avoid common liability risks.
We’ll also touch on coordination with Medicaid, long-term care facilities, and insurance policies.
If multiple family members are involved, we’ll help you identify the best structure to avoid future conflict.
Common Topics Covered:
• Powers of attorney and healthcare directives
• Family caregiver agreements and payment structures
• Avoiding fiduciary liability
• Coordination with Medicaid or VA benefits
• Conservatorship risks and prevention
• Handling family disagreements over care
