In Massachusetts, both Special Needs Trusts (SNTs) and Supplemental Needs Trusts (SuppNTs) are designed to benefit individuals with disabilities by providing for their needs without jeopardizing their eligibility for public benefits like Medicaid (MassHealth) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
As a parent or family member of a disabled person, you are naturally deeply concerned about his or her well-being. You can provide for the needs of your loved one by creating a SNT or a SuppNT. These legal vehicles can provide a steady stream of income to pay for the living needs of a disabled person or for other designated purposes.
Our attorneys have created many special needs trusts for disabled people over the years. We gain great professional satisfaction from this work, and we want to help you provide for the needs of your loved one.

Special Needs Trust in Massachusetts
We can review your situation and that of your child or loved one. Our attorneys will then create a trust designed to achieve your goals and provide a stream of income for your loved one.
We also provide trust administration services. This can ensure that the special needs trust continues to provide income, so that your loved one’s needs can be provided for, even when you are gone. We charge reasonable and affordable fees for the creation of trusts and for trust administration services.
Retaining Eligibility for Government Benefits
When providing for the needs of a disabled child, you must take care to protect the child’s eligibility for government benefits such as Social Security Disability, Supplemental Security Income and MassHealth/Medicaid. Our special needs trust attorneys understand the complex rules regarding eligibility for these programs, and we will create a solution that preserves eligibility for these vital benefits and services.
