Steven A Heinrich

Steven helped us navigate a tricky path thru the Medicaid process for our elder father and a piece of property that we were hoping to keep. His insight and experience steered us thru and ultimately we were able to save the house. And importantly, his manor and confidence allowed us to relax thru the ...process. We heartily recommend Steven, he’s a real gift.

My wife and I used Steve to re-do our wills and establish a trust. My wife has become a Stage 6 Alzheimer's person and future care was going to be an issue. Heinrich helped navigate the complex Medicare/Medicaid environment to help us protect our limited assets. He also developed a great care plan... for my wife in the event of my death before hers.

First let me say that in my business I have had to deal with lawyers for over 30 years. Please be very very careful before engaging with this attorney. He will have you sign a fee agreement that is complicated and overly detailed as to how billing is done. That should have been my clue to walk away ...but had already started the process with him and he is a knowledgeable lawyer in elder law. Unfortunately, He did research ( which is in the fee agreement ) at his discretion but in our case was a long list of rabbit hole research and “what if’s” that he admitted would most likely not happen and I never asked him to check on. It is Then charged us!! I asked him to write a simple short friendly letter to medicaid to feel out a situation that had most likely been resolved already but I wanted to be sure. He charged for listening to messages, and getting them from his assistant who got what I said wrong several times! He also charges for emails. He also charged me for a synopsis of our first meeting that cost more than the first initial meeting! I did not ask for that synopsis I took notes of my own. In the end I never got what I needed and was afraid to make notes on the draft since the first time I asked for two tiny changes his “research “ cost ME almost $800! In my experience he does not stay on track and do just the task requested. I say stay away unless you have money to burn. Thousands billed to me for what should have been a few hundred dollars in my opinion and experience:
