I highly recommend the Farr Law Firm for eldercare planning. I rapidly needed to make decisions for my mother’s long-term care, as she had just entered a nursing home in Pennsylvania due to dementia. Because of the expertise, professionalism, and compassion of the Farr Law Firm I was able to meet ...with attorney Farr quickly and be apprised of my options. In short order, the firm, through Jeannie, helped me place my mother in a nearby, highly rated nursing home in Virginia (NOT an easy task) and supported me through several Medicare appeals regarding the initial part of Mom’s care. Other members of the Elder Law Team, paralegals Seresa and Grace, provided total support for a successful Medicaid application, complicated by a claim for a Medicaid Caregiver Exemption for my brother. Grace continues to provide exceptional service on all matters big and small. She is professional and expert in explaining and implementing the steps in the process of qualifying for eligibility and protecting assets. She is knowledgeable and reassuring in examining the what-ifs of different complicated scenarios. She was stalwart in responding in those rare instances of nursing home billing errors when the corporate “tone” became unnecessarily adversarial. I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude for her help whenever needed. My mother’s estate is modest. With the help of the Farr Law Firm her assets are protected to the greatest extent permissible, far more than I imagined and that I could have achieved on my own. Most importantly, because of attorney Farr’s expertise my mother’s wishes regarding my brother were able to be honored. The fees of the Farr Law Firm are extremely fair given the results they are able to achieve. I continue to retain their excellent services.

When we needed to learn how to manage our sister's anticipated inheritance, it didn't take long to settle on the Farr Law Firm for advice. Their reputation as the experts in elder law and estate planning preceded them. After a thorough review of our situation, they revised my mother's revocable livi...ng trust and prepared a Special Needs Trust for my sister. There was some urgency as my mother was nearing 100 years of age. Thanks to their knowledge and depth of experience they were able to complete the work in a matter of days. Trusts are complicated and in the course of administering them, I've had numerous questions for Mr. Farr or a member of his staff. Without fail, responses are clear, comprehensive and delivered without delay. Working with Farr, I know I can count on things being done correctly and to our best advantage - and that adds up to great peace of mind.

Mr. Farr is quick to respond when the time is challenging. His staff member was prompt and polite. She was available even when the office was closed (very important for me as the time is the essence). Easy to schedule the appointment. Mr. Farr is very knowledgeable in the area I needed help with (pro...bate). Mr. Farr was very patient with me, as I was stressed and looked for advise. Definitely will hire him if we will have to probate. His advises were very helpful and straight to the point.

We have been using Evan Farr in Fairfax for 20 years. He is thorough and every attorney in his office is super competent and dedicated to making sure that your living will/trust reflects your individual needs. It is a comprehensive process...they make you think about more than who you want to manage ...your money and when your children can get access to it. You are asked to think about the circumstances regarding when your loved ones should consider a nursing home, if any. You must think about who you want to make health care decisions for you if you cannot make them yourself. You must state your DNR instructions. You must think about autopsies and organ donation to name a VERY FEW. They give advice about who to list as beneficiaries for all types of assets. There are so many considerations that you must ponder so that your loved ones are not left with the burden of making these decisions. IT IS HARD AND SHOULD BE. It is a collaborative process. It is not boilerplate. And more importantly, it is not a ONE and DONE decision. Through the years your wishes may change as will your tax situation and the people you chose as trustees and guardians. The Farr legal team has been with us through all of these times. They are able to make legal mumbo jumbo understandable and relatable and they welcome questions. At the end, you will feel satisfied that every situation and issue has been considered. I am so thankful that we found them.

Dear Mr. Farr, We are writing to thank you for the exceptional experience working with your office. We worked closely with Mr. Justin Cohee who recently prepared several documents for us (Advanced Medical Directive, General Financial Power of Attorney, Real Estate Power of Attorney, HIPAA Authoriz...ation). We had many questions and clarifications and Mr. Cohee was always highly responsive, knowledgeable, very clear in his explanations, and patient. Always organized for our meetings, he is the consummate professional. Going through this process can be stressful and details are critical. Having someone you trust to guide you through makes all the difference. We found that in Justin. At a personal level he is also a pleasure to work with. We also had excellent experience with the entire office staff in Fairfax. Everyone is pleasant and professional. Thank you for having such talented individuals in your firm. We look forward to working with your office in the future. (Fairfax, VA)
