Practice Areas
Sometimes, a sudden fall or unexpected illness can place you or a family member in urgent need of long-term care, with no idea how you will pay for it. Many people are surprised and frustrated to learn that Medicare does not cover long-term skilled nursing care, which can cost up to $6,000 each month.
The attorneys of Leu & Peirce can help you and your family understand your options and guide you through these important decisions. At Leu & Peirce, we focus on the following areas of practice:
Guardianship
Some individuals reach a stage in life at which they are no longer able to make important decisions for themselves. In that case, it may be necessary for a court to appoint an individual, known as a guardian, to oversee the personal affairs or finances of the incapacitated individual.
