Our specialized, experienced, and compassionate services are based on our knowledge in several areas of practice, including estate planning, Medicaid planning, and retirement tax planning.

Elder law is not an area of law; it is a specialization that requires knowledge and experience in different areas of law. Ideally, you want to have someone who has the knowledge, education, and experience in basic legal documents, estate planning, government benefits, income taxation, estate, and gift taxation, and knowledge of financial products and retirement.

As you prepare to protect your future and preserve your legacy, our firm can help you take advantage of estate planning tools such as wills, trusts, and powers of attorney. Our Baton Rouge elder law attorneys can also help you protect the assets and property you have worked hard for, offering services in business and tax planning, entity formation, wealth preservation, and more.

What Our Clients Say


  • When my sister n law became ill and required 24 hour care we knew the cost of a Nursing home would drain my brother n law so we hired the Losavio and DeJean Elder Law Firm. It is unbelievable what can be done to protect a life long worth of savings. My brother n law now has the piece of mind now that his wife can be taken care of for the rest of her life in a Nursing home and he is still able to maintain his lifestyle without selling off all of his assets and draining his bank account. Smartest move we ever made!

    Thanks you so much Mr. Peter Losavio!

    Rodney B. Boyd Sr.
  • I first met with Pete to review my mother’s will and Power of Attorney. He was able to recommend several improvements as well as set up the trusts and LLC needed to protect my mother’s assets. Even though there was not a large amount of assets, I was able to provide professional assistance for my mom until she passed. I would have never been able to navigate these complex processes with Pete’s guidance. Pete was just as helpful when mom applied for Medicaid. She had been denied several times due to problems with Medicaid’s software system. Pete worked directly with the nursing home business office and with the Louisiana Department of Health to resolve these issues and get Mom approved. I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation for Pete and his staff for all of their help. I highly recommend the Losavio & DeJean Law Firm for you Elder Law needs.

    Glinda David
  • Pete protected my father, his wife, and their wealth when his wife became sick and needed long-term care. For peace of mind, I strongly recommend Pete for estate planning and asset protection.

  • Well worth the time, eye opening meeting!

    James Strictland
  • Absolutely the most professional and personable staff I’ve ever had handle my legal issues. The entire staff returned phone calls and updated me with information for both legal and personal documents. Thanks for taking on a difficult and sensitive situation with compassion and transparency.

  • When it became clear that my husband could no longer be cared for at home, I was worried sick. I was sure that our assets would not last long—that is until I met Pete Losavio. Pete suggested estate planning with a component dedicated to getting Medicaid assistance. Thus began my journey through the various stages of estate planning and the morass of Medicaid guidelines and paperwork. More than three years later, I have an estate plan in place and my husband is receiving Medicaid assistance.Pete and his staff were professional, responsive, and really invested in the work they were doing for me.I would not hesitate to call him again for any legal need I might have.

  •  I attended an Estate and Life Planning workshop conducted by Losavio and DeJean, LLC. I went in not knowing what was involved in Estate Planning. After the session was completed, I left with knowledge that I would ask Peter Losavio to be the lawyer for me and my family. I was impressed with his staff and the way they took messages and always answered the phone promptly. The experience of working with Pete Losavio was a pleasant one. He Always talked to us, never at us. He only answered our questions, but included all the other issues we should be aware of and addressed them. There was never anything left on the table, not discussed and attended to. It is not difficult to understand why Pete Losavio is considered one of the top 100 Super Lawyers in Louisiana for Elder Law. It’s a privilege to recommend him to anyone seeking the best lawyer there is. His knowledge and respect for the law is apparent. After leaving his office with all of our paperwork completed and knowledge that we can call him anytime with questions is a peaceful feeling. It is comforting to know I have our estate planning taken care of for my children, (I know their dad in heaven is too). I feel that I was part of a team with a great lawyer and we had completed a job well done.
