Hall & Hall Releases its new "Boomers and Seniors Elder Law Blog"


Hall & Hall, PLC, is pleased to bring you a new blog for Baby Boomers and the Seniors they love. This will be a reliable place to look for information and tips on matters of concern to the elderly and their children.

We are creating this blog because we know that our population is aging in what has been referred to by many as “the Silver Tsunami.”Our seniors are living longer and have new issues to face. Our baby boomers are looking at how they can help their parents as they go through the later stages of their lives and how they need to plan for their own lives and families. Professionals in related fields want to know more about these important areas as well.

There is so much information available on the internet that many people feel they do not know what is accurate and what is not. They want to consult a source they can trust.  This blog is intended to provide timely and helpful information based on Federal and Virginia law and tips based on our knowledge and experience.

There is a great deal  to know about Estate Planning, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Long Term Care, Medicaid, Veteran’s Benefits, including VA Aid and Attendance, Powers of Attorney, Medical Powers of Attorney, Guardianship and Conservatorship, vulnerability to Elder Abuse, Wills, Trusts, and Estate Administration. People come to us expressing bewilderment and a desire to make informed decisions based on sound advice. While the tips and information in this blog will not constitute legal advice, we hope they can help give you some foundation of understanding so that you can seek and use legal advice properly when it becomes necessary. For advice on a specific legal matter you should consult an elder law attorney based on your unique situation.
