Workshop on Wills & Special Needs Trusts

Posted: May 1, 2009

The WV Developmental Disabilities Council announces a workshop on wills & special needs trusts for family members of persons with developmental disabilities.

Are you worried about what will happen to your family member after you are gone?
Do you think you have to be wealthy to set up a trust?
Do you have a will?
Do you think you must "disinherit" your family member in order for them to remain eligible for government services, such as Social Security and Medicaid?
Are you interested in learning more?

WHO: Robert S. Kiss, Attorney at Law with Bowles, Rice, McDavid, Graff & Love LLP

10:00 am - 2:00 pm
