In Legal Terms: Special Needs Law Month

We’ll discuss Special Needs Law – what are the laws around estate planning and protecting vulnerable adults. Rick is the first attorney in Mississippi designated a Certified Elder Law Attorney by the American Bar Association-accredited National Elder Law Foundation. Rick is a former Director of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) where he serves on the Trusts and Special Needs Law Sections Steering Committees.I love our shows but sometimes you needs a hand out or information you can refer back to when you want additional information. Our guest: Rick Courtney has a wonderful website with blog articles, Frequently Asked Questions section, and even a book: A Lawyer's Guide to Working with Special Needs Clients.Our show is about you and your rights. Rights that are derived through laws made by lawmakers. Our next election is in 3 weeks. November 5th. If you think you’ll be away from your home county on that day you can vote absentee right now. The Mississippi Secretary of State’s website y’allvote.ms has so much information or call your County Circuit Clerk for the information you need.If elder law is interesting to you, you’ll find our Monday Talks podcasts of value. Just last week, a representative of the Social Security Administration was the guest. You can listen to that podcast now. Or you can send them an email with a question for the next time the topic is discussed ([email protected]) – or use the Talk To Us feature on the MPB Public Media App.   Hosted on Acast.
