Product Description

PC: 42153-2/42153-2E

This is the second of a three-book series that together will provide a broad education in all aspects of disability law and practice. Each standalone volume focuses on a particular area of disability law and includes chapters on ethics and resources for the practitioner.

Book Two focuses on Financial and Health Care Benefits and Future Planning, and includes chapters on estate planning, government benefits, managed care, SCPA article 17-A, MHL article 81 and rights in facilities.

Disability law is remarkably diverse, the issues often involving legal areas that, at first glance, do not appear to be germane to the field. The authors bring their unique perspectives to their chapters and we hope you will find both the subject matter and their perspectives to be valuable in your practice. — Nancy Maurer and Simeon Goldman.
