Professional, Knowledgeable, Honest, Kind and Compassionate Attorney and His Team

In January 2020, my father retained Bryan Adler to assist in the Elder Care planning for him and my mother. My mother had PSP and my father was in need of assistance with their Medicaid application. Prior to our first meeting, Bryan and his team sent me a detailed list of financial statements and doc...uments that they would need. That day we met with Bryan, Kaitlin Dirkx and other members of his team. They were all very empathetic and interested in doing the best for my parents. Everyone was so quick to respond to any questions we had, and we had many. Email communications were clear and concise. Kathleen Magee came to our home and did a thorough evaluation and supplied us with a great list of resources. Covid became an obstacle and my mother’s condition deteriorated. Bryan and his team offered all sorts of accommodations in order to keep my parents safe and continue this application via zoom. Kathleen would email me and call me to check in on my parents. Unfortunately, my mother passed away due to PSP not Covid in August. We notified Bryan and his team. They reached out to me immediately. We didn’t know what we were responsible for once my mother died. Kaitlin provided me with a full list and Bryan called to check in on us. Bryan and his team have made sure that all important items have been tied up and now my father is in great shape with his Elder Care. If you have elderly parents in need of Elder Care planning, I would not hesitate to retain Bryan Adler. I have met plenty of attorneys over the years. Bryan has a wonderful, comforting way about him. His team carries themselves in an extremely professional manner. They are all very knowledgeable in this area of law. Most importantly they take on your case as if they are taking care of their own family members.

Highly Recommend

Bryan’s services were needed when my father in law passed away and his help was incredible at a very hard time for our family. There are many lawyers who have the knowledge, but not many who truly care about you and your family. Bryan spent time with us getting to know who my father in law was and... what my mother in law’s needs were going forward. At that time he was able to use his knowledge and industry experience to set a plan in motion that was well explained and tailor fit for us. Bryan really got us through a tough time and I would highly recommend him.

Excellent Experience

I hired Bryan for his services regarding the Wills/Power of Attorney/Health Care Directive for myself and my husband. From start to finish, Bryan was extremely detail-oriented, efficient and easy to work with. His knowledge in this area is unmatched as any question I had was met with a clear and tho...rough explanation. He kept me informed and I felt part of the process throughout, as though he was working ‘with’ me not just ‘for’ me. You can tell he is very experienced with the intricacies of estate planning and really enjoys what he does. In my opinion, the relationship and trust you build with your attorney is just as important as the quality of the documents. I could not be more pleased in both respects. I would highly recommend Bryan to anyone looking for estate planning or specialized elder care.

Great help for difficult situation

Mr. Adler assisted me with estate administration and inheritance issues arising from the loss of my stepfather. With Mr. Adler's help, the family was able to preserve some of the assets that my stepfather had worked a lifetime in building. Mr. Adler was professional, courteous and very knowledgeable.... I would highly recommend this lawyer and his services.

Practitioners from all over the United States look to him for his guidance and friendship. Bryan is a trailblazer that is constantly looking at ways to improve the lives of his clients and their family members. His work extends beyond simply establishing the right legal documents.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Bryan over a period of years at this point. When I have matters that involve Pennsylvania property or people, I have consulted with Bryan on how to handle the PA part of the matter. Bryan is bright and on top of the PA laws and regulations and he has the highest standards of ethics and integrity. Additionally when asked who would I refer to in the greater Philadelphia area, Bryan is always at the top of my list. Bryan follows the Life Care Planning model of elder law that I use in my practice, so I always know that anyone who I refer will receive attention to all of the issues that they are facing. I cannot think of another attorney or firm that is better for elder law in the Philadelphia area."
