Income Tax Planning For Long-Term Care, David M. English
Income Tax Planning For Long-Term Care, David M. English
Faculty Publications
Planning for long-term involves more than the preparation of powers of attorney and counseling on possible asset transfers to qualify for Medicaid reimbursement. Steps should also be taken to make certain that the person receiving care continues to file an income tax return and does so at a minimum possible income tax cost. Practitioners should be familiar with the procedure for filing a return on behalf of an incapacitated individual. The medical expense deduction, while of little importance for most taxpayers, is critical for many elderly, particularly for those receiving long-term care. Long-term care insurance and life insurance may be …

Why They Won't Take The Money: Black Grandparents And The Success Of Informal Kinship Care, Sonia M. Gipson Rankin
Why They Won't Take The Money: Black Grandparents And The Success Of Informal Kinship Care, Sonia M. Gipson Rankin
Faculty Scholarship
In this note, Ms. Gipson Rankin discusses kinship care as an alternative to placing children into foster care. For generations, particularly in the Black community, grandparents and other older relatives have played a crucial role in raising the children of younger relatives when they have become unable or unwilling to raise the children themselves. This system, known as kinship care, has ensured that thousands of American children are cared for and raised by members of their own families. The note explores the history and nature of the kinship care system, and analyzes federal and state policies that impact the system. …
Promoting Judicial Acceptance And Use Of Limited Guardianship, Lawrence A. Frolik
Promoting Judicial Acceptance And Use Of Limited Guardianship, Lawrence A. Frolik
Articles
Guardianship comes within the special province of judges. In the great majority of guardianship hearings, there is no jury. The presiding judge is the sole arbiter of whether the alleged incapacitated person meets the legal standard of mental incapacity and whether that person would benefit from the appointment of a guardian. If a guardian is appointed, the judge determines the type and extent of the powers granted to the guardian. Of course, the judge is not simply free to follow his or her own instincts or desires, for the judge is bound to determine the facts carefully and apply the …
The Developing Field Of Elder Law Redux: Ten Years After, Lawrence A. Frolik
The Developing Field Of Elder Law Redux: Ten Years After, Lawrence A. Frolik
Articles
In 1993, Professor Frolik helped initiate The Elder Law Journal's first issue with his essay, The Developing Field of Elder Law: A Historical Perspective. Today, with the publication of the tenth volume of the Journal, Professor Frolik looks back over the past decade to reflect on the changes that have occurred within the field. In the past, he writes, Medicaid planning was thought by many to be the core of an elder law practice. This was not the case ten years ago, however, and it is certainly not true in the twenty-first century; elder law attorneys must practice in multifarious …
