For Professionals
A new client sits across the desk from you. When you ask her which are her most pressing financial concerns, she says: "My son is 22 and has developmental disabilities. I need to know how to help him apply for benefits. His father pays child support and my son has started to work.
"How can we keep the child support and my son's earnings and the government benefits he just started receiving? How can I retire, make sure my son has what he needs and still leave something for my daughter?
