How We Can Help

What Is A Wealth Preservation Trust?

Many families of significant financial means are concerned about becoming targets for plaintiffs and attorneys who seek out the deepest pockets when filing litigation. A wealth preservation trust is a relatively new instrument for removing financial assets from the personal control of the family placing the money into a trust, making it unreachable for a lawsuit settlement or jury verdict. When the trust is set up correctly, the family has the right to establish the terms and conditions under which the trust is to be funded and the assets distributed to grandchildren and future generations.

We engaged Livens & Reed to create a Supplemental Needs Trust for our adult special needs daughter, to ensure her financial needs were met but also done in a way to not disqualify her for Texas Medicaid benefits she currently receives. Shawn Crawford was excellent, along with Caleigh and Angie: very thorough, explaining every aspect and legalese in layman's terms, in a timely manner and what we thought was a very reasonable fee. We also consulted with Chad Reed on our aging parent's needs and what steps we might follow to have them qualify for Medicaid, when the time and need arises. Very friendly, spent all the time we needed with us during our free consultation. Highly recommend this law firm for anyone considering Trusts, Medicaid qualifications, and elder care. Thank you Livens & Reed!

The legal team at Livens & Reed has proved to be nothing short of exceptional. From Chad Reed, Nicole Landrum and finally, today, Shawn Crawford. Talking about a dream team, I feel very fortunate and comforted knowing I have the right people on my side. Thank you for your warmth and professionalism! It’s reassuring to know our legal needs are in great hands. If I could rate higher than 5 stars I absolutely would.

I worked with Livens & Reed on a medicaid situation for my 93 year old mom. The paperwork, rules, timeline, can be stressful and intimidating at times, but Mehan Barbre & Nicole L. Harkins walked me through the paperwork, and doctuments that we needed and told me what to do and in the end sucess ! Thank you , again ! Erika Koneck
