Navigate Aging, Care Options and Medicaid Planning
Boulay offers Elder Law Services as part of our affiliation with Kremer Law.
Getting older is something we all face. Planning for it is something most of us put off.
Few families are fully prepared for the financial and legal weight of a long-term care need. When that moment arrives, the decisions that were not made in advance become the hardest ones to face. Our Minneapolis elder law team helps individuals and families move from uncertainty to a clear, practical plan, whether that means planning years ahead or responding to an immediate need.
Skilled nursing facility care in Minnesota averages more than $11,000 per month in 2026. Earlier long-term care planning means more options and greater control over what comes next.

Meeting You Where You Are
- Planning ahead: We put Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts and essential estate planning documents in place before nursing home care becomes urgent.
- After a diagnosis: We assess your financial and care situation and build a plan that protects your estate while accounting for memory care, assisted living or nursing home costs ahead.
- During a care transition: We handle the details of a move to assisted living or a skilled nursing facility, including Medical Assistance application timing.
- In a crisis: When long-term care cannot wait, we apply for Medicaid right away and use available tools to preserve assets and accelerate Medical Assistance eligibility.
- Ongoing support: We manage Medical Assistance renewals, Medicaid spend-down requirements and program transitions as your situation changes over time.
