Perez‑Roura Law helps Miami individuals and families navigate Medicaid, SSI, SSDI, Medicare, and other government benefits—through eligibility planning, asset protection, application assistance, and appeals when needed.
Navigating government benefits can be a maze—especially when balancing eligibility with asset protection and care planning. At Perez‑Roura Law, we offer strategic legal guidance tailored to Miami’s diverse residents. Whether you’re facing rising long-term care costs, need to preserve your home, or seek disability or healthcare benefits, our team helps you qualify, apply, and protect your resources while maintaining eligibility. We build plans that coordinate multiple programs, protect what matters, and handle denials or changes with confidence.
Medicaid Planning: Safeguarding Assets and Care
Medicaid funds most long-term care—but its eligibility rules can force you to spend down life savings. We design asset protection strategies using tools like irrevocable trusts, spousal exemptions, and qualified income trusts to preserve your home, investments, and inheritance. Our team navigates Florida’s five-year look-back rules to avoid penalties and assist with crisis applications for immediate care eligibility. We help with paperwork, agency negotiations, fair hearing representation, and post-approval compliance, keeping your benefits active while preserving generational wealth.
SSI and SSDI Planning: Accessing Disability Benefits
Disability claims aren’t easy—both the documentation and procedural timelines are demanding. We differentiate between SSDI and SSI needs, help gather medical evidence and work histories, and prepare strong initial or supplemental submissions. We then support appeals—through reconsideration and hearings—if claims are denied. Our goal: to secure timely benefits and maintain them long-term, including assistance with work incentives, overpayments, and post-eligibility changes in your situation or income.
Coordinating Medicaid & Medicare Coverage
In many cases, recipients need both Medicaid and Medicare coverage. Each program affects eligibility for the other—and coordinating them correctly maximizes benefits. We help clients enroll in Medicare Parts A, B, C, and D, understand supplemental coverage, and navigate dual eligibility via Medicare Savings Programs. Our guidance ensures you receive comprehensive care benefits—from doctor visits to medications to long-term support—without disqualifying yourself from essential assistance.
Appeals & Denial Support: Standing Up for Your Rights
Denied applications aren’t the end—they can be opportunities to advocate. If your Medicaid, SSDI, SSI, or Medicare claim is rejected, we step in for administrative reconsideration, hearings, and appeals to state or federal review bodies. We build strong cases using medical reports, financial records, testimonial support, and legal argumentation. And we defend against overpayment recovery actions—helping identify errors, negotiate adjusted repayment plans, or contest unwarranted debts.
Maintaining Eligibility & Adapting to Life Changes
Your situation isn’t static—income, family size, and health change over time. We help monitor benefit status, report mandatory changes to caseworkers, and adjust structures to preserve eligibility. Whether you downsize a home, receive an inheritance, or see Medicare code changes, we update your plan to respond proactively. This ongoing attention helps avoid catastrophic issues like benefit suspension, financial penalties, or truncated care.
