About Anthony

Anthony B. Ferraro has extensive experience handling issues involving elder law and Medicaid asset protection planning for long-term care. His clients also come to him regarding assistance in traditional estate planning, “senior” estate planning, trust administration and probate administration. As a trusted legal advisor for over 40 years, Anthony regularly represents maturing families, aging baby boomers, seniors, and their families as well as various fiduciaries such as agents under power of attorney, executors, and trustees to achieve asset protection for individuals and families that have members who have begun the “long-term care journey”.

Anthony provides strategies for family members and their fiduciaries regarding 1) Medicaid pre-planning, 2) Medicaid wait-and-see planning, and 3.) Medicaid crisis-planning and other matters pertaining to aging.

Anthony’s substantial experience allows him to assist clients and their families in representation for: 1) long-term care planning for nursing home care, 2)nursing home admission contracts, 3) Medicaid planning and asset protection strategies, 4) Medicaid applications for long-term care, 5) Medicaid appeals, 5) special needs planning, 6) life’s inevitable changes from the need for traditional estate planning to planning for ill or institutionalized single persons or spouses, 7) individuals who have developed Alzheimer’s, MS, Parkinson’s and other degenerative health issues requiring a focus on governmental benefits eligibility.

Through Anthony’s relationships with attorneys in elder law, locally and nationally, he is focused on the never-ending changes and issues brought to the forefront by state and federal legislatures, and governmental agencies.

Anthony remains dedicated to providing service that will guide clients and their families through life’s three phases: maturing years, senior years, and post death years.

Anthony has been selected to the Illinois Super Lawyers® list. 2026 marks his tenth year receiving this honor.
