Elder Law and Asset Protection
Protecting your home, savings, and lifelong assets becomes increasingly important as you age. Without proper planning, long-term care expenses, nursing home costs, and unforeseen medical needs can quickly drain what you’ve worked hard to build. Our Elder Law Asset Protection services help seniors and families safeguard their financial future while maintaining eligibility for essential benefits like Medicaid.
At the Law Offices of Leo Mikityanskiy, we provide strategic, legally compliant asset protection planning tailored to Pennsylvania’s rules and your family’s goals.
Why Asset Protection Matters for Seniors
Many families are surprised to learn:
- The average nursing home in Pennsylvania may cost $10,000–$13,000 per month
- Medicare does not cover long-term nursing home care
- Without planning, you may be forced to spend down assets before qualifying for Medicaid
- Transfers must follow strict Medicaid rules or risk long periods of ineligibility
- Your home, savings, and retirement could be at risk
- Proper Elder Law planning allows you to protect assets before they are threatened — and, in many cases, even during a crisis.

- Your primary home
- Retirement accounts
