Asset Protection Estate Planning – It’s For Everyone!™
Welcome to Elder Law Group PLLC. We are your Asset Protection Estate Planning™ and Elder Law Team in Spokane and the Tri-Cities, helping families throughout Eastern Washington preserve assets for their loved ones’ care. We help you plan for the future or deal with the present through proper estate planning and asset protection strategies. We answer your questions about how to avoid nursing home impoverishment. We help you learn and utilize the best Elder Law options for you and your loved ones in Spokane, the Tri-Cities, and surrounding communities, including Idaho. Our practice is limited to Asset Protection Estate Planning and Elder Law. We are available to help you with personal, compassionate guidance in the following areas:

Asset Protection Estate Planning™
Wills & Asset Protection Supplemental Needs Trusts
Durable Powers of Attorney for Financial and Health Care
Health Care Directives
Medicaid Asset Preservation Strategies™
Long-Term Care Planning
Probate & Trust Administration
Other Elder Law Issues
The Long-Term Care needs of you or your loved one present complex legal and social issues. Most people prefer to remain at home if possible. With proper planning we help you achieve your goals, resulting in the highest possible quality of life. Costs of care at home or in a facility can be enormous. We help you understand what government benefit programs may be available to you to help pay for Long-Term Care, such as Medicaid or Veterans Affairs. Surprisingly, Medicaid may allow retention of substantial resources by a spouse or family member. The rules for these programs are complex and change frequently, so it is critical to consult with Elder Law Group PLLC, experienced Elder Law attorneys. Whether you are concerned about the cost of Asset Protection, Long-Term Care, or simply want to make your estate plan easier for you and your loved ones, we are here to help you every step of the way.

Coffee, breakfast pastries, a professional hand massage, and chit chat with people we know by name. ☕️ 🧘‍♂️ That’s how everyday should start!

This morning our Tri-Cities office hosted a “coffee break” for our Circle Members, folks who stay connected & protected after completing an Estate Plan with us.

We learned that St. Petersburg is one of the most beautiful places to visit, the waterfalls across Washington are worth driving to, and how great our Attorneys are at figuring out the best plan of action and explaining every step of the process.

It was a great morning thanks to our great clients, Café Magnolia and The Runway Esthetics.

Do you have a Will or need one? You know the term "Estate Plan", but what about this "Elder Law" thing? 🤔...

There is a difference between a typical Estate Plan, and one built specifically for YOUR situation, that protects you through very serious and complex situations.

JOIN US TODAY - BRING YOU QUESTIONS
https://na2.hubs.ly/H07tjGJ0

Situations that keep us up at night:
😧Nursing homes in WA can run $16,000 per month.
❤️Many people need the legal authority to help their parents with decisions ASAP.
😔Often, children are accidently "cut" from an inheritance after a second marriage.
💔A couple can lose their entire savings if one spouse needs long-term care, leaving the other spouse impoverished.

THOSE are the gaps in a typical Estate Plan that an attorney in Estate Planning AND Elder Law can close. If any of those situations concern you too, join us today.

What you'll walk away with:
💡A clear understanding of what elder law planning covers that standard estate planning does not.
‼️The three most common situations Lynn sees where Washington residents are left unprotected.
✅Confidence in knowing whether your current plan is enough — or what your next step should be.

For our friends and clients of the Seattle area, happy navigating around Seafair weekend! WSDOT makes it so easy. 🤣

SEAFAIR WEEKEND IS CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF. We've hit pause on most major Seattle-area roadwork for Seafair weekend, but the skies won't be the only thing that's busy. Expect heavy weekend traffic, especially around Seafair events.

Here's your pre-departure briefing for getting around the greater Puget Sound:

The I-90 bridges will be open across Lake Washington. But here’s the deal… “open” does not mean that this is where we stop, stand, shimmy, or gander at the pretty blue angels in the sky. Now repeat it back to me “I will NOT stop along the I-90 Trail during the Seafair shows.”

Revive I-5 work over the Ship Canal Bridge is still ongoing. The express lanes are northbound 24/7. Expect very heavy traffic, especially along I-5 in and out of Seattle. If you've got a game or concert on the itinerary, consider arriving by bike, bus or light rail.

Heading from Tacoma toward Gig Harbor? Plan extra time Saturday, Aug. 1. From 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., two right lanes of the westbound Tacoma Narrows Bridge and the Jackson Avenue on-ramp to westbound SR 16 will close while crews perform emergency reinforcement of previous bridge joint repairs.

Travelers in the South Sound should also plan ahead. The Tribal Canoe Journey to Nisqually is expected to increase traffic Friday through Sunday around DuPont, JBLM and Nisqually.

Before you taxi out for the weekend, download our mobile app for real-time travel information so you can chart the best route to the ballpark, the waterfront or wherever your weekend takes you. Happy Seafair!

Jimmy Shane won the Apollo Columbia Cup in the Tri-Cities on Sunday. 🏆 AND he has an estate plan in place... so we think he's winning at life in general. 😉

We had the honor to work with him a while back and couldn't be more excited to see him add another win to his record.

Here's Jimmy on why a young family man would want an estate plan...
