Wanting to become a elder care attorney
Hello all!
Currently I am a 28 year old licensed social worker in my state and pursuing my clinical licensing in the next 18 months or so. While I do enjoy being a social worker currently, I have thought about going into law, specifically elder law.
In my current place I do go over certain topics such as medicaid, advance directives, assets, trusts as well as a surface level finances (monthly income, 401k, SSI, retirement etc for the purposes of applying for medicaid under current guidelines) and I'm considering going into elder law/estate because if I'm going to review it as a social worker I might as well get paid to do the actual paperwork.
My question is, what is the prospect like as an elder law attorney as well as going back for law school, the LSAT and such? And also if I'm being too ambitious for my own huberis? Thank ya all!
