Elder Law Attorney in the Twin Cities
Helping You Manage Long Term Care and Protect Your Assets
If you are the adult child of a person with age-related health issues, or if your spouse has Alzheimers or a similar condition, you may be concerned about how you can get your loved one the care required without losing everything you have worked so hard to build. You may need to establish a guardianship or conservatorship to protect assets because your loved one lacks the capacity to manage financial affairs. In these and other situations, you need an experienced lawyer to help you.
At the Law Office of Sally K. Mortenson, in Burnsville, Minnesota, we provide experienced and knowledgeable counsel to older individuals and their families, helping protect assets and plan for long term or home health care. Attorney Mortenson is a member of the governing council of the Elder Law Section of the Minnesota Bar Association, as well as the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys. We care about our clients, and we work hard to find ways to meet their specific needs. We keep our office small, so that you can work directly with your attorney at all times.

Our Elder Law Practice
We work closely with individuals, including concerned family members, who need guidance in planning for long term care or home health care for a parent or spouse and in methods of asset preservation. This can include a broad range of services, including:
- Strategies to transfer and preserve assets, including methods to pay for long-term care
- Preparing and filing medical assistance applications for individuals who are already in a nursing home or long-term care
- Updating wills, health care directives or powers of attorney
- Creating a guardianship or conservatorship if your loved one lacks the capacity to manage his or her own affairs
Our primary focus in all elder law matters is to help our clients accomplish their goals. We can provide you with the information and ability to manage the important legal affairs as your loved ones age.
