Posted by Tony Stopar | December 28, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Elder Law

Thanks for everything!

Finding out that the nursing home that cared for your fragile loved one ignored them is heartbreaking. I needed someone who believed in justice and holding neglectful parties accountable in such a difficult scenario. Elder Abuse Lawyer Russel Morgan was that individual. He explained the legal proces...s step-by-step. He kept me updated and was available to answer any queries. During this difficult period, Russel's assistance and compassion were vital. His priority was justice, but he also took the time to comprehend my loved one and me. I am so grateful Russel Morgan represented my loved one. If you struggle for justice, I highly recommend Morgan Legal Group. Russell, thanks for everything.

Thank you

With many firms knowing that we unintentionally waited that long to request for lawyers help in securing long-term healthcare insurance for ourselves, the charges were ridiculous. A family member suggested I reach out to Russel Morgan from Morgan Legal Group PC, and yes, they handled the Elder Law ca...se with precision and swiftness and even suggested we create proper Wills and Trusts in place so that our kids and relatives do not have to go through the stress of the Probate process. Of course, we took the advice and the representing advocate delivered a perfect Estate Planning that only an expert could produce. Saying these guys are amazing is undermining their professionalism, they are astounding, one of kind!

A+ Attorney.

I know that my mom won’t be able to live on her own forever, which is why we got in touch with Russel Morgan to come up with a plan for eventually transitioning to long-term care. He provided truly thoughtful service and I could tell he took all that we said into account. It doesn’t hurt that he wa...s such a friendly guy

So Glad I Chose Russel Morgan

Russel clearly knows all that there is to know about Elder Law. He was able to articulate every step he took so that I could see how every decision he made was the best choice for me. If you want to be confident that you’re getting the best long-term care planning possible, then I absolutely recomm...end Russel Morgan’s elder planning services

Miraculous

My mom is getting older and it became apparent that we needed to consult an elder care attorney to get a long-term care plan in place. Russel Morgan was the right choice. His team handled our situation with infinite finesse and always treated us with dignity and professionalism. Mr. Morgan has def...inite people skills and was a delight to work with.

  • 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.
