INTRODUCING Logan Philipps.
I tell people I am a developmental disability estate planning attorney. And then I give them my elevator speech. “I help people with disabilities and their families plan for the future. Individuals with special needs can’t inherit in the same way that typical individuals can. If they receive an inheritance they will often lose essential benefits like Medicaid and services like transportation and day programming and support staff. I help families make sure that what they leave behind will benefit, not hurt their loved one with special needs. But that’s not all. In addition to planning for after parents pass away, I help people ensure that individuals receive the proper benefits. I help folks decide if guardianship is the right way to help an adult with disabilities. I help people apply for SSI and I help families explore options when it comes time to move out of mom and dad’s home.”
I really have a full head of hair, I just shave my head for the fun of it. Just kidding. For real, I have been skydiving twice.
My family—my wife, my 3 boys, and my brothers.
I coach a lot of soccer. My ideal Saturday would be a warm Spring day during which I coach 2 or 3 games that my boys play in and that all the kids have fun.
