Special Needs Planning

Charleston Financial Planning Consultants' goal is to help families plan for the future of their dependent children with special needs, icluding preserving goverment benefits and providing insurance and other financial strategies which can help provide lifetime quality care. The planning process begins with a complete review of your dependent's needs, future care plans, assessment of goverment benefit eligibility, and finally a review of your family's current financial and legal plans.

We would be glad to provide costs and complete details as well as help you to determine your dependent's needs and funding options to address those needs.
