powers of attorney, wills, and trusts
I believe estate planning should be short, simple, human, and correct. That’s why I’ve created Forward Estate Planning, a system designed to make it easy to get a good, simple estate plan done. I do things a little differently than other lawyers:
Forward Estate Planning costs just $600 for a simple plan including wills, powers of attorney for health care, powers of attorney for finances, one Designation of Transfer on Death Beneficiary or deed for real estate, and instructions for updating beneficiary designations. This fee applies to single and married clients.
long-term care for the elderly, blind, or disabled
When your loved one needs long-term care or Medicaid, it gets complicated quickly. I can make it simple for you.
Mom is in the nursing home, or Dad is in memory care. There’s a giant bill coming each month; life-long savings are evaporating. What can you do? How much can you save? What if you make a mistake?
You need to know what you can do and what you can’t, and you need to know it now. I give real answers to help you navigate the complex bureaucracy of long-term care.
Hiring an attorney is a big decision. But, when it comes to Medicaid, it often makes a lot of sense. Families hire me because:

Offices located in River Falls and Somerset, Wisconsin.
Pierce County, Polk County, and St. Croix County served in person. All of Wisconsin served via virtual services.
My parents originally met with a general practice attorney to seek help with their estate planning. The general practice attorney was unsure of Medicaid rules and offered confusing and uncertain answers to their questions. They left the appointment completely overwhelmed. My parents needed to know all of their options so that they could make educated decisions. At that point, we decided we needed to consult an elder law attorney.
Thankfully, we found Ben Wright. We live several hours from Ben’s office, but Ben was able to answer all of their questions through emails and phone calls. Most importantly, he simplified the complicated Medicaid laws and used language that my parents could understand. Because of this, they felt they could make confident decisions about their future.
There are times when you need to consult an expert. Estate planning is definitely one of those times. We strongly recommend Ben Wright!
My husband and I highly recommend Benjamin Wright. He assisted us in our will & POAs and was personable, welcoming, informative, professional, patient, timely, organized. Having been our first experience creating a will, he did an excellent job explaining all aspects of it, as well as informing us of options with each decision. He is a patient listener, facilitator, and guide. We are grateful for his expertise and would definitely recommend.
My siblings and I saw Ben for a Medicaid consultation related to our Mother who has dementia. He helped us tremendously in understanding how the process works and the implications of any decisions we made. He was also great to answer our follow-up questions.
Attorney
I became a lawyer to help families like mine. I came to elder law because it’s all about the biggest challenges families face: providing and caring for loved ones.
In today’s world, that means navigating the bureaucracies of law, money, and health care. I’ve seen too many people overwhelmed, unable find their way through these bureaucracies that make everything so complicated.
As an elder law attorney, I have the knowledge and training to cut through bureaucracy. I believe making things simple is good for everyone. So I’ve made it my mission to take things that are often complicated—estate planning and Medicaid—and make them simple for my clients.
