Stephen O Allaire

Thank to Allaire elder law I got through the process of getting Medicaid for my father who is confined to a wheelchair. Darlene & Sarah made sure all the correct paper work was submitted and that we had all the documentation the state of Connecticut needed Charlotte came to the nursing home and help ...make sure he was receiving proper care. I could always call if I had any problems or questions and someone got me an answer or the help I needed. A lot of people said you don’t need a lawyer, I don’t think I would have been able to get through this grueling process with out them. At times I would tell Darlene I was ready to give up and she would reassure me we will get there and we did. Thank you doesn’t seem to be enough to explain what they did.

My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a few years ago and we were struggling to pay for and get him the help he needed. I spoke to a good friend of mine for suggestions and she recommended that we see an elder law attorney to discuss our options. I did a quick search and came across Attorney Alla...ire’s practice. After reading all the great reviews I decided to set up a consultation. We first met with Charlotte, she quickly reviewed our case and suggested that we apply for Medicaid. She was so helpful and informative that we decided to hire Attorney Allaire to help us complete and file the Medicaid application for my husband. She did warn us that we were going to have to provide them a lot of paperwork and at times will be very overwhelming. She wasn’t kidding, but with all the help from Attorney Allaire’s office my husband is now on Medicaid getting the help he needs. There is no way we could have accomplished this on our own. I can not thank Attorney Allaire and his wonderful staff enough. They made the impossible, possible!

When it was clear my mother couldn't continue to pay for a live-in aide without soon running out of money, I tried on my own to find out how she might qualify for the CT Home Care Program for Elders. It was quickly obvious that I needed elder law professionals to help me understand the process and ...to usher the application through. I'm convinced that without the help of the paralegal, elder services coordinator, and Medicaid coordinator assigned to us, it could never have been done. Working with them couldn't have been easier--they were completely and quickly responsive, always knew the answers to my questions, and provided constant reassurance along the way. Now that the cost of mom's aide has been taken over by Medicaid, mom can continue to live in her apartment for at least a year longer than she would have--and at her advanced age, that might mean being able to live out her life at home. This legal service was worth every penny, and I recommend the firm to anyone who might have similar needs.
