MetDESK (MetLife's Division of Estate Planning for Special Kids) was launched in 1998 to expand upon MetLife's vision of "Financial Freedom for Everyone". MetLife is one of the only financial services organization to have it own division of estate planning for special kids.
MetDESK is committed to helping families through the maze of legal and financial complexities surrounding planning for the future of children and other dependents with special needs. Through a dedicated network of specialists, MetDESK helps families secure both lifetime care and quality of life for their children or other dependents with special needs.
Planning for the future of a child with special needs requires knowledge of the federal laws as they pertain to government benefit eligibility, legal documents such as special needs trusts and guardianships as well as financial considerations for providing not just lifetime care, but quality of life.
The same holds true for dealing with issues of medical insurance authorizations for specialized services and products such as physical therapy and medical equipment. It is also true when it comes to knowledge of the special education laws which most often require you to become an active advocate and participant in your child's education plan.In planning for your child's future, remember that you are the expert on your child, but you may also need to turn to a number of other experienced professionals for assistance on such things as special needs estate planning. Though many of these issues can seem overwhelming, it is important you take the time with those professionals today to provide for your child's tomorrow MetDESK's relationships with the advocacy organizations are designed to provide members with easy access to special needs financial and estate planning information to help protect their rights and to educate them on issues facing the special needs community.To schedule an appointment with MetDESK® specialist Nicki A.
