San Fernando Valley Ca Special Needs Trust Attorneys, Sirkin & Sirkin advise clients and personal injury attorneys on protecting public benefits such as SSI and Medi-Cal for  disabled adults and minors.  Obtaining litigation proceeds creates the risk of loss of public benefits such as Medi-Cal and SSI.

Unlike other types of special needs trust, a litigation special needs trust is made specifically for litigation proceeds.   The court normally determines the reasonableness of the proposed settlement and directs parties to disburse the proceeds to a special needs trust for the benefit of the disabled person or minor.   Minors' Compromise / Disabled Persons' Compromise proceedings are very complicated and create many risks to attorneys who have never dealt with public benefits.

Common cases where litigation proceeds may be ordered to a special needs trust:

1.   Personal Injury actions and Medical Malpractice litigation proceeds.

2.   Trust/Probate Litigation cases.

3.    Conservatorships involving injury to the Conservatee.

4.    Elder Law and Elder Abuse litigation proceeds cases.

5.   Any case were a disabled adult or minor may receive a judgment or settlement proceeds.

The main impediment in compromise actions is obtaining a bond for the trustee of the trust.   Contact our Special Needs Trust Attorneys in Los Angeles, and San Fernando Valley who can assist you in implementing the proper trust for the disabled adult or minor.

Before you settle an action and before you agree to a strutured settlement, call us to consult regarding the best vehicles in settlements of special needs adults and children.
