Elder Law 25%

As you get older, your chance of needing some form of long-term care increases. Managing that care can be extremely expensive, and Medicare, long-term care insurance, and other health insurance programs do not always cover the total cost of long-term care services. The Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Asher, PLLC, will help you with your long-term care planning and will help you qualify for Medicaid and other government benefits.

Working together, we will come up with the right plan to help protect what’s important.

Medicaid and Medicare 25%

Managing long-term care can be extremely expensive, and Medicare, long-term care insurance, and other health insurance programs do not always cover the total cost of long-term care services. Medicaid does … if you qualify. Long-term care planning will help you qualify for Medicaid and other government benefits. The firm will help you with your Elder Care planning, long-term living arrangements, and, if necessary, assist you in obtaining Medicare and Medicaid benefits.

Probate 25%

When a person passes away, his or her loved ones file the deceased person's Will with the Court asking that the Will be "admitted to probate". The decedent's Will is "probated" - and the Executor is appointed - when this process is complete. When a person dies without a Will, the process is substantially similar. The Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Asher, PLLC, will help you and your family navigate the unfamiliar, and often unfriendly, waters of the probate process.

COMPLETE SATISFACTION / ATTENTIVE & THOROUGH

My family and I were very pleased that Mr. Asher made himself available for a consultation within a couple of days that allowed us to become more knowledgeable in estate planning within NYS. His responses were detailed and thorough and he provided scenarios along with his explanations. It was comfo...rting that Mr. Asher was very attentive to us, was well informed and that he was able to articulate his knowledge in a clear manner on a conference call that he'd set up to address our concerns. Thank you immensely, Mr. Asher. LN

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.

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.
