Don't Let Dementia Steal Everything: Avoid Mistakes, Save Money, and Take Control Kerry R Peck ISBN 9781641052030

“Oh no—what do we do now?”

Every 65 seconds, someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia. For families facing this life-changing news, answers and guidance are critical.

Written by nationally recognized elder law attorneys Kerry Peck and Rick Law, this book helps families navigate the complex legal, financial, and care decisions that follow a dementia diagnosis. The authors provide clear, practical advice to help you make informed choices and avoid common pitfalls, including:

  • Giving away assets to qualify for nursing home benefits

  • Assuming Medicare will cover long-term care

  • Waiting too long to seek expert legal guidance

  • Treating nursing home Medicaid as a DIY project

  • Believing a revocable living trust automatically protects assets

  • And many other common mistakes

With this guide, you can approach a dementia diagnosis with confidence, clarity, and a plan to protect both your loved one and your family.
