Finding the Answers for
Helping a Senior Family Member
In 2010, 40 million people age 65 and over lived in the United States, accounting for 13 percent
of the total population.* It is not only these 40 million people who have to face difficult decisions,
it often includes their younger family members. The decisions are complicated, and involve a number of areas
such as real estate, taxes, public benefits and legal issues. Questions such as, "Should we sell the house?",
"How do we control finances?" "What are the options and, which are the best?", "What about Medicaid?"
In order to address these multi-discipline concerns, Joe Eggert, of Weichert Realtors
(a Senior Real Estate Specialist) and Bob Shanahan, Attorney from Kilcommons, Shanahan,
(an Elder Law Attorney) proudly announce that they have joined together to offer complete elder care
services. Joe can address all aspects pertaining to home sales and find the answers you need for all
of the issues that may arise in getting a home ready for sale (permits, clean-outs, removal of underground
oil tanks and failing septic systems). Bob specializes in all aspects of elder-care law (tax concerns, estate,
long-term care, guardianships and Medicaid law)
Together, they are offering guidance to assist you when faced with the concerns of an aging relative.
They can address an array of issues such as nursing home care, in-home care, financial issues,
reverse mortgages, wills and power of attorney. Call Joe Eggert and Bob Shanahan today to find out
