Life is in perpetual flux.  Change is the only constant.  

With every season of life, there are new challenges 

and new questions which need to be answered.  

As a law office specializing in Elder Law, we can help 

phrase the changes in life into questions and then 

provide options for answers.  

A wonderful aspect of Elder Law is the sense of relief 

and self-empowerment which a knowledgeable practitioner 

can provide to the elderly and those who love them. 

 Although the age old adage is “knowledge is power,” in 

Elder Law, a better and more accurate expression may 

be “knowledge is relief.”  

There are options to be weighed and choices to make.  

We can help you decide which path is best suited for your family.

When your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

At the Elder Law Offices of Portia B. Scott, Chartered, we have

many, many tools in our toolbox.

No two families will have the exact same issues, though many 

have similarities.  Therefore, each family will need different 

tools or combinations of tools.   When looking in the face of 

financial ruin, of skyhigh medical expenses, of a loved one 

who does not seem to understand the danger he or she 

may be in, you need to know what can be done.  

Our favorite statement from a client is one which says, 

“I feel so much better knowing what my options are.”

We explain the options.
