Medicaid application

Attorney Allaire and his staff were extremely helpful with a recent medicaid application and preparing other legal documents for elderly parents. Response to calls and emails were returned in a very timely manner. Jessica, our Medicaid Paralegal, provided great guidance as we moved through the comp...lex process of documentation required to secure a successful outcome. She is very thorough, which minimized the time it took for the case to be reviewed/approved by the State. There are many possibilities depending on each person's circumstances and Jessica took time to explain what option was being used and why. Charlotte, our Elder Care Coordinator has provided suggestions and support to secure the best services possible to enable my parents to remain in their home with the proper level of care. She is extremely knowledgeable and helped us focus on the right things at the appropriate time. I highly recommend Allaire Elder Law for such services.

Allaire Elder Law Equals Exceptional Service

I was tasked with putting my Mother's affairs in order, as she was moved to a Long Term facility due to medical conditions. I quickly realized that caring for her affairs was beyond my capability. I reached out to Attorney Stephen Allaire for his assistance. When I left the initial consultation I fel...t as if the weight of the world was lifted from my shoulders. His Team provide me with the proper guidance, and immediately interceded on my behalf. I was extremely pleased with the results, knowing my Mother's affairs were properly cared for. Attorney Stephen Allaire and his staff Exceeded My Expectations. I highly recommend Attorney Allaire to anyone who is tasked with dealing with the affairs of their elderly loved ones.

Help with Medicaid

We hired Atty. Allaire about two years back in order to get our mother on Medicaid. Long story short: It would have been almost impossible to get this accomplished without the help of him and his skilled staff. They told us exactly what to do and how to do it.

The pinnacle of Elder Law..the only firm to use

Complete satisfaction and the highest level of professionalism can be expected with Allaire Elder law. I am a NY resident dealing with an elderly Aunt in CT. Allaire Elder Law has the right staff in place to handle our title 19 submission. Hats off to Jessica and all of the team at Allaire that h...andled our case. From the initial meeting to the submission the lines of communication have been always open and produced the correct outcome for all involved. This team has all the knowledge and experience needed.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
