Starting in the fall of 2010, Law Elder Law LLP will offer an Elder Law & Estate Planning Bootcamp at Waubonsee Community College. The attendees will gain the tools to use in planning for life and death realities, trusts, and financing nursing home care (including VA benefits). They will find out about the need for estate plans and Powers of Attorney. The class is offered through WCC’s Community Education program and is open to those who are 50 years old or better, a loved one, a caregiver, an advisor, or anyone looking for more information in this confusing field of knowledge.
