Elder Needs Law was definitely a good decision for us

After our father suffered a severe stroke, his life changed dramatically. Paying for his newly-needed care was a big challenge. My brother and I started looking into acquiring Medicaid benefits, which was an incredibly difficult task. We soon realized that we needed an attorney that specializes in... elder care to help us with this process. There are hundreds of elder care attorneys in the greater Miami area. We searched for reviews of different firms, but noticed that most of the recommendations were coming from other lawyers and colleagues. We wanted real-world recommendations from actual families, with stories similar to ours. We called Assisted Living facilities in the area and spoke to their managers. Several of them recommended Jason Neufeld with the firm Elder Needs Law. We decided to work with Jason and his staff. Jason and his staff are extremely efficient. They are very knowledgeable, caring, and responsive. They have answered all of our questions, (special thanks to Tracy Meli) and guided us through this process. Choosing Elder Needs Law was definitely a good decision for us. The Medicaid application process is very complicated, confusing and time-consuming. We could have NEVER navigated through these many processes by ourselves. Our mother has since declined medically, and now both our parents have been approved by Medicaid, thanks to Elder Needs Law. Our anxiety about how we can afford their care is gone and we can sleep at night. We highly recommend Elder Needs Law.

Elder Needs is the best!

Jason Neufeld, Carolyn, Jodi, Tracy and the entire staff at Elderneeds Law are all amazing experts. They were so helpful and knowledgeable as they guided us along the process of establishing a will, power of attorney, a trust and the Medicaid application, which was approved almost immediately. We can...not recommend them enough. They are the business to contact if you are thinking of setting up any of these services. You will not regret it!

Thank you!

Thank you, Jason and Team. You all were such a great help getting through this process with my elderly aunt's Medicaid fiasco! You all were so supportive and understanding even when I was off the chain stressing out because I was scared and panicking. You all deserve a gold medal!
