What is elder law? Elder law is a growing area of the law which provides education, guidance and legal services to the senior population so they can obtain the peace of mind they richly deserve. An elder law attorney must have a thorough knowledge and understanding of medicaid laws, estate planning techniques, real estate conveyancing, estate income and gift tax laws, not to mention social security and medicare laws.
