This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Expert in the law and very personable

I contacted Mr. Bleck after hearing his lecture about Elder Law. He seemed very knowledgeable and approachable. I met with him and engaged his services in getting all my 'elder' documents in order......Health Care Directive, POA, will, etc. I had put off these tasks for years and now I am happy I ...did as Mr. Bleck made this process seamless.

Great experience!

We went to many attorneys and none could help us. Sean Bleck immediately saw our problems and solved them. It wasn't inexpensive, but was just so simple it was well worth it.

Asset Protection Under Medicare/Medicaid

3 fellow baby boomers recommended Sean Bleck while searching for an atty to navigate eldery parents thru the Medicare/Medicaid system with particular expertise on asset protection. Before we met, his firm's website (www.isenbleck.com) provided a wealth of info, he met w/ us right away and his written... recap came the day after our meeting. Our 1 hour meeting was extremely educational and provided our parents with an alternative to the divorce option we had all feared. The affordable, flat-fee put us at ease and was appreciated. I would not advise anyone with assets to apply for Medicaid w/o legal representation. Thank you, Mr. Bleck.
