Naples · Collier County
Elder Law & Medicaid Planning Attorney serving Naples
Naples holds some of the largest retirement estates in Florida, and the cost of doing nothing scales with the estate. A statutory probate fee on an eight-figure Naples estate is a six-figure bill; an unplanned long-term care event can consume more. We bring Palm Beach-caliber private-client planning to Collier County families, by Zoom, without the Gulf-side premium.
Turk Law Group is a boutique West Palm Beach firm serving families throughout Florida: Medicaid and long-term care planning, estate planning and trusts, probate avoidance, asset protection, and protection from elder exploitation. Meetings are held by Zoom with every family decision maker in the room, and documents are executed under Florida's remote online notarization law or by coordinated signing near you.
Arrange a ConsultationWhat is local about a Naples matter
Probate venue. Collier County probate is administered in the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, through the Collier County Courthouse in Naples. A funded revocable trust keeps your family out of that courthouse entirely; when probate is unavoidable, we handle it without your family ever needing to appear.
The aging network. Home and assisted living Medicaid in Collier County begins with a scored telephone screening through the Area Agency on Aging for Southwest Florida, reached via Florida's statewide Elder Helpline, 1-800-963-5337. That screening call determines your place in line for the waiver; we prepare families for it before they dial.
Alternative programs. PACE, the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, operates in Collier County, offering an alternative pathway to comprehensive community-based care with its own enrollment process. We evaluate PACE alongside the waiver in every design meeting.
Larger Naples estates feel Florida's statutory probate fee schedule most sharply, which makes trust-based planning and homestead strategy unusually valuable here.
How we serve Naples families
Plan ahead
Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts, Lady Bird deeds, and integrated estate plans built five or more years before care, so nothing is countable when it matters.
Navigate a crisis
When care is needed now: asset and income strategy, spousal protections, Qualified Income Trusts, the Medicaid application, and guidance through the facility process.
Keep it current
Every strategy is executed, funded, and reviewed through our Legacy 360™ process, so the plan still works when your family finally needs it.
Questions Naples families ask
- Do we ever need to come to West Palm Beach?
- No. Every standard meeting is by Zoom, and signings are completed under Florida's remote online notarization law or coordinated near Naples. The plan, and the law behind it, is identical statewide.
- Will Medicaid take the house?
- The Florida homestead is generally protected during life, but Medicaid estate recovery can reach it after death without planning. The right deed or trust structure protects it. Run the numbers with our free probate and long-term care calculators.
- Is it too late if my parent is already in a facility?
- Almost never. Crisis planning routinely preserves far more than families expect, and a nursing home stay can even open a pathway around the waiver waitlist for home or assisted living care. The strategies narrow with time, so call sooner rather than later.
