Independent Case Consultations for Special Needs Trust Planning
Helping families and professionals navigate Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Medi-Cal, and special needs trust eligibility with clarity and confidence.
About Jeremy B. Sanchez
With almost a decade of experience in trust administration and government benefits (Supplemental Security Income and Medi-Cal), I’ve helped hundreds of families and professionals navigate the complexities of special needs trust planning with clarity and confidence.
Today, I offer independent educational consultations designed to help others better understand the rules and options that apply to individuals who receive government benefits.
As an independent consultant, I’m not affiliated with any trustee organization, allowing me to provide unbiased education focused solely on understanding the process and empowering informed decisions.
My goal is to make the trust and benefits process understandable so that decisions can be made based on knowledge, not confusion.
What You’ll Gain From a Consultation
Each session is tailored to your situation.
In general, you can expect three key takeaways.
-
After reviewing your specific circumstances, you’ll gain a clear understanding of the available options for individuals who receive government benefits and whether establishing a Special Needs Trust may be appropriate to discuss with your legal or financial professional.
-
You’ll learn how the rules of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medi-Cal may affect your situation, and how eligibility can be preserved when followed correctly.
-
You’ll leave with practical questions and considerations to help you evaluate potential trustees, ensuring you can identify the best fit for your needs or those you support.

Meet one-on-one in a 60-minute educational session focused on understanding how SSI and Medi-Cal rules may apply to your situation. Video conference is recommended, though phone consultations are also available.
