Title 19 Application Assistance

Our family cannot express enough gratitude for the excellent legal services provided by both Attorney Stephen Allaire and Attorney Halley Allaire during a very stressful and difficult process to get my mother onto Title 19. The attorneys and staff are professional, extremely knowledgeable, and work ...to the highest standard. They fully explained the process, and promptly answered the numerous questions we asked during our many phone calls, emails and meetings. They kept in touch with us on a regular basis with updates. Attorney Stephen Allaire, Attorney Halley Allaire and their entire staff always treated our family with the utmost courtesy, respect and patience, with a full understanding of what our family was dealing with during the process. Without hesitation, we highly recommend the firm!!

Attorney Allaire was hired to do a long term care plan for my Dad. Charlotte and Darlene, part of Attorney Allaire's team have been a tremendous help. They have been with me step by step during this entire process. They sat with me in my Dad's Healthcare meetings . They spoke up on any concerns that... arose and made sure my Dad had the best care. They had very thoroughly prepared for all situations. They made me feel like I was the only client.

Estate Planning

I hired Attorney Allaire for assistance during a very trying time for my family. Attorney Allaire expertly assisted with elder care issues, asset protection, and estate planning. He came highly recommended, and he lives up to his reputation -- I give him and his team my highest recommendation. We wer...e working against some very tight deadlines, and Attorney Allaire and his team were incredibly personable, responsive, and competent. He has assembled a powerhouse group that can expertly navigate the confusing terrain of elder care law and planning. He's a man of integrity, which is incredibly refreshing.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
