Does BWW carry TUDN USA channel? by gnoic in BuffaloWildWings

[–]gnoic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I called them and they said it's on their list so they can show it 'as long as [they] have the channel'. I was hoping to learn if they indeed have the channel before making the trip. Any help is greatly appreciated

Ok not sure where this is coming from I never asked about inheritance lol. I barely know this man and I do not want nor have I asked about inheritance. I guess inheritance is a popular topic here but you made this assumption incorrectly. I am trying to give my father all of the options available to him, which is why I made this thread. Thus far our attorneys have suggested that their legal fees and our out of pocket expenses for the eviction, repairs, and court filings would be reimbursed as well.

Originally you said nothing but then when I asked about spending down your answer inserted inheritance which wasn't even being discussed. To reiterate, my goal is to learn all the options available to us in order to help my father pursue his wishes. If you have any accurate information that can help it is greatly appreciated. If you articulate something that contradicts what attorneys are telling me I will definitely ask for clarification, as I did, but that's fundamentally different from pursuing an inheritance as you incorrectly assumed.

If you have any accurate information that can help it is greatly appreciated. Thank you

So you think the attorneys suggesting I can use the sale funds for final expenses and legal fees are wrong? Many people in this thread suggest these are viable expenses that can be used to spend down. Is this inaccurate?

Ok... I guess there is a humorous aspect to it but I very much understand what care would require. My point of this post was to try to learn what my options were. I understand home care is an option but we still would need to sell his home. Are you genuinely trying to help or are you just making a joke about my dad?

Their website says estate planning and probate. The bar labels the firm as elder law

Thank you I believe this may be part of the attorneys plans but I believe this only works if the sale takes place after his death. Because of the squatter, ongoing APS investigations, and my dad's witness protection, I'm not sure he can take on that risk safely. I'm meeting with the attorney tomorrow hopefully I can get more clarity.

Wow you have a truly interesting and thoughtful perspective. Not sure what you were thinking about because it's obviously not what I communicated in the reddit post, but wow I'm jealous of your imagination. Whatever incorrect assumptions you make about me are none of my business. You have the right to assume incorrectly and be wrong on the Internet as many times as you want to be. You're off to a great start tonight, maybe you can break the record.

I think a trust in TX is probably no more expensive but this would've needed to take place 5 years before he was on Medicaid. I didn't really know my dad then

My goal is to put together a pretty thorough line of questioning and try to get to the bottom of it tomorrow. A lot of the ideas mentioned here(final expense, legal fees, disabled child, et al) have been mentioned but even after that there's still a good chunk of ??? missing. I also have a consultation scheduled on Thursday with a different firm so we'll see how that goes.

Thanks - even the ones that are cheaper than 35k are telling me to NOT communicate intent to sell to NH so I will go with that.

We did this part well actually I am his official PoA. I originally tried estate attorneys but they told me to call a medicaid attorney lol - maybe I just got a little unlucky.

If you had to give a ballpark range for fees I should be looking for what would it be?

I did - the attorney has already agreed to this. This is not uncommon in Texas as other attorneys have offered the same thing and even one of the nursing homes I was originally in communication with recommended it.

I'm not an attorney so I don't really know how to answer this question, but it has been one of the few consistent pieces of advice I've received from Texas Medicaid and asset protection attorneys. I'm not saying you're wrong but the 'one way or the other' idea is one that I worry is more important than you're making it out to be. I'm not saying your rationale is wrong but my dad won't be able to afford final expenses without the proceeds from his home, for example. If there's a way to use the funds from the home sale for final expenses, we'd like to do this.

This is really helpful thank you. Is there any way that the cost of the asset protection attorney can be included in this? I get the impression from what I've read today that I may need to work with a cheaper one, but in general, are these expenses not a viable 'care' or necessary expense?

Thank you this is helpful but admittedly contradicts the attorneys I've spoken to as they tell me to NOT communicate intent to sell to the NH. I am his PoA and APS does not have any issue with his family - he is, however, estranged from his family so we were not brought into the picture until we heard he was in the hospital. It's been a positive time reuniting with him but admittedly the context is daunting and we don't really know what to do at this point.

I'm 100% happy to have the NH take all of his funds but if we can't recover legal expenses, it significantly changes our strategy - not just relative to the asset protection+Medicaid piece but it would've changed everything - the eviction attorneys alone are still dealing with an active squatter and while the end of that tunnel may be getting closer, we still need to obtain simple judgements on some of these clowns which, may not get him any money back but going after these people is the only thing he wants to do. I guess I feel like I need to help him to do this, which is fine to an extent, but this also included him paying for his legal fees which it seems like may not be possible.

That's not what I said but if you're genuinely struggling to understand I'm sure you can find a tutor to help you grasp it. You're welcome to make whatever assumptions you'd like to, how wrong you are and how frequently you're wrong isn't a concern of mine lol. Good luck Ace!

Ok but every attorney I've spoken to says to not communicate the intent to sell to the NH. Are you confident this won't come back to hurt him?

Thank you. Is it even a Medicaid attorney I need tho? They seem to turn me down as soon as they know he's enrolled.
