This afternoon, we released our November 2025 e-newsletter from R. F. Meyer & Associates. If you did not receive it by email, please look for the link below to access it in PDF form from our website.

Our three articles in the November 2025 newsletter cover:

  • Last week, the Social Security Administration announced that Social Security beneficiaries will receive a 2.8 percent cost-of-living adjustment in 2026. The average retired worker’s monthly benefit will increase about $56, to about $2,064.
  • In a recent webinar about the status of federal housing assistance for older adults in the United States, two nonprofit organizations outlined a crisis underway for seniors. Among their findings: Social Security barely covers average rent for a one-bedroom apartment, and older adults are the fastest-growing group experiencing homelessness.
  • In recent years, private equity (PE) firms have been buying more nursing homes and companies that own nursing homes. What seems at first like a simple shift in ownership can have significant consequences for residents, staff, and families trying to find safe, compassionate care.

We hope these articles related to Elder Law and Estate Planning are informative and an interesting read for you.
