I am writing to you in regard to the wonderful job performed by NJ Elder Care Law Center. They were particularly good at explaining the step-by-step tasks that I had to do in order to find a good nursing home for my wife. I know that I would not have been able to navigate successfully through the Medicaid system without their guidance and help.

My family needed a knowledgeable elder care lawyer to determine the best options for my aging and ailing parents. NJ Elder Care Law Center was recommended to us and they did an outstanding job in reviewing our options, quickly reallocating my parents’ assets, and qualifying them for additional benefits. My father is a WWII veteran and Eric also identified additional Veteran’s benefits that could further help my family. Most importantly, they were very sensitive, patient, and responsive to my entire family. They made sure my mom understood every step of the process. It was a pleasure to work with NJ Elder Care Law Center.
