Assisted Living Waiver - Zero Share Cost

Laura will get it done. Take notes because everything she says will unfold exactly how she says it will. It was a complicated (ALW then Zero Share plus backdate appeal) process that was completely new to me and I was out of the country and when back was in a different state from my father for the dur...ation. She was very very good and I highly recommend her!

Top specialist for Medi-cal application process for elderly.

Elder Care Law is a top notch firm for helping my mom in her application for Medi-cal. It is not easy to apply Medi-cal at her age. However, the Laura and her team at Elder Care law were very thorough with their work and Weylon guided me thru the process and step by step to achieved our goal. I would... highly recommend their team!

Highly recommend

Laura B helped our family so much during a very difficult time. Seeking benefits for our loved one, and having to cut through the red tape and required documentation, seemed absolutely overwhelming. What we needed to do, and what we needed to present to obtain approval, was clearly presented to u...s. This allowed us to move forward under her guidance. I would also include Weylon in this review. He always kept on top of what we were submitting so we could get approval. I can’t even imagine taking this whole process on by ourselves. We have already recommended Laura and her team to others.

Recommend HIGHLY!

Perhaps, as with MANY out there I never ever thought 'we' would ever have to be in the position to apply for MEDI-CAL assistance, but unfortunately, 'life' can throw you 'curve balls' that leaves you with NO CHOICE in the matter...I have to say Elder Care Law, Laura, Weylon and their team of EXPER...TS made this process a lot more UNCOMPLICATED than I ever thought it would be. They are the 'real deal' and know what they are doing. If you or family members find themselves in the position where they TRULY need "assistance' that MEDI-CAL provides, I recommend this group 500%...BTW, they were always available whenever I needed questions answered etc etc.. Many THANKS to this group and their team.

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.
