    Default Senior Citizen Upon Release: What to Know

    My question involves federal prison but your answers will likely apply to state prisoners too. When a prisoner, who has become a senior citizen while incarcerated, is released - what do they need to know? Thinking of particular estate planning issues, social security, medicare, getting other welfare services, etc. which may be different from younger parolees.

    Default Re: Senior Citizen Upon Release: What to Know

    I'll let others get into more specifics, but honestly, Google is your friend with this. You can easily visit any of the websites for the services you mentioned (www.medicaid.gov, www.ssa.gov) and you can also look at State resources. You don't provide your State so I can't link anything but States have their own resources for senior citizens that you can also look into. Try a Google search like whatever county and state you are in with "senior citizen services". Other than that, any estate planning would be dependent upon how many (or any) assets the individual has. That would determine the type of planning that would need to be done. Otherwise, a simple will can be drafted by any estate/will lawyer in your local area. Call around and ask for pricing. Most places will charge a flat fee for this service.
