In this episode of the PlanAssist® Podcast: Tim Clifford, CFP sits down with Family & Probate Attorney Samah T. Abukhodeir, Esq. to discuss why estate planning is critical—especially for families with special needs beneficiaries.
Samah explains how improper planning can unintentionally disqualify loved ones from Medicaid and other government benefits, and why specialized tools like Special Needs Trusts are essential for protecting long-term care and financial security.
They also discuss the evolving role of artificial intelligence in the legal industry. While AI can improve efficiency in drafting legal documents, both Samah and Tim caution against overreliance—emphasizing the importance of personalized legal and financial advice.
