Growing old is a part of life, but legal issues change as we get older. Elder Law focuses on the needs of aging clients such as allowing another individual to make medical or financial decisions and end of life planning. We also advise on transitions to retirement communities, assisted living, and nursing homes.

DKMO Elder Law attorneys also counsel clients on Medicaid, veteran’s benefits, and other government programs and explain the federal and Illinois rules regarding qualification. At DKMO, we serve as a resource to identify which issues you or your family members are facing and help to assist you whenever possible or refer you to the best attorney, geriatric care manager, or benefits advisor for your particular issue or need.
