Posted by Marie | October 30, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Awesome, integrity and intelligence in spades!

Mark has been consulted and hired in regards to my estate matters. Mark has an excellent reputation in this region, so my family and friends all flock to, and hire Attorney Pasquali for his discernment and absolute clarity in preserving our estates for our kin. If you have simple or complex estate ma...tters, look no further than Attorney Pasquali!

Satisfied

We met with Mr. Pasquali because our mother was paying over $7,000 a month to the nursing home and we didn't know what our options were. He explained how Medicaid qualification works and qualified mom for Medicaid in the month we first met, avoiding the payment of thousands of dollars to the nursing... home. I recommend that anyone who has a loved one in or on the way to the nursing home meet with Mr. Pasquali or another qualified Medicaid attorney to find out what planning is available.

"Being an estate panning attorney myself who does not focus in the areas of elder law and medicaid planning, I needed a competent attorney to refer my clients to when such needs arose. I have referred numerous clients to Mark and have received nothing but positive feedback from them. I have nothing but confidence in Mark's abilities."

"Mark is one of the very few attorneys in the Mt. Pleasant area who is thoroughly knowledgeable and adept at estate planning (wills, trusts, powers of attorney, etc.) and also at helping people in nursing homes qualify for Medicaid. His workshops about estate planning and Medicaid are very informative and helpful to mid-Michigan area residents."

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.
