I was impressed that NJ Elder Care Law Center took considerable time doing a free consultation to clearly explain their service, and offered advice on how we should proceed with my elderly mother's care. I never realized how complicated and costly elder care can be. My siblings and I are grateful and at ease that we have the NJ Elder Care Law Center guiding us through the maze of elder care law now and into the future.
