What Is a Special Needs Trust?
A special needs trust (SNT) is a legal structure that allows you to set aside funds for the care of a person with disabilities—without jeopardizing their access to essential government benefits like Medicaid or SSI. At Hansen Law, we tailor every trust to align with your loved one’s needs and comply with both federal and Massachusetts law, ensuring long-term support and peace of mind.
