Medicaid Application

Jack did a great job at handling my mother's medicaid application (and subsequent reviews/renewals). Very easy to communicate with via e-mail or phone, specific questions asked and answered. Dealt with other institutions (insurance, social security, etc) and got the info when I wasn't able to.

I highly recommend Jack for Medicaid Planning. He did an excellent job on my Mom's Medicaid. We also highly recommend Jack for Estate Planning. Jack is very knowledgeable and competent.

Posted by anonymous | September 22, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Medicaid & Medicare

Didn't do what we asked him to do.

Attended one of his Medicaid seminars to learn more about preparing my parents estate to handle their financials down the road and qualify one of my parent's for Medicaid. He rewrote their estate plans twice and never positioned them for Medicaid qualification. Very arrogant and demeaning to talk to.... Had to hire a new elder law attorney and rewrite parents estate plan again in order to separate their assets for qualification of Medicaid. He does the Medicaid seminars but has no clue. With new attorney, parents are positioned for the future and things are in place to protect them financially when nursing home needs are necessary.

Elder Care Attorney Jack Bolling

Very expensive for what I needed done. Elder care attorney with office difficult for elders to use, had to use steep stairs to walk up and down. I may be old but am not dumb, made me feel like I couldn't understand what he was saying and mostly talked to my family instead of me.

I have been going to Jack for approximately 5 years and I appreciate his honesty and knowledge of the issues I brought to him. I have recommended him to friends and would do so again. He's thorough and makes me feel he always keeps my best interests his primary concern.

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
