Surprise! Medicaid Says You’re Income Is Too High .

Certain states cap limit income. You’ll have high nursing home bills with too little income to cover it. A number of states apply Medicaid income limits.  These states are referred to as “Income Cap States.  The legislature in each strictly limit the amount of income an applicant for Medicaid nursing home benefits can have and […]

  • Exceeded My Expectations My experience with the Holland Law Firm far exceeded expectations. I reached out to Michael with a question regarding a Miller trust for my mother in law and he clearly explained aspects of the trust that few had been able to do during our research. His expertise in Elder Law gave us a level of comfort we have not been able to find elsewhere. I highly recommend Holland Elder Law Firm if you find yourself in a situation requiring a Miller Trust or anything elder care related, they are outstanding! Thank you Michael.

  • I hired Michael as soon as we received the medical advice that my dad needed to move to a skilled facility. Working in the legal field myself, I knew it would be important to have someone with experience dealing with Medicare. I could not be happier with the services provided by Michael and his crew, specifically Martin and Kathy, who were always available when I needed to speak with them. I could tell they actually cared that my mom and I were able to tend to Dad, instead of stressing out about the voluminous amount of paperwork involved in the application. We received multiple pieces of correspondence from Medicare that were incorrect, including false denials of coverage! It scares me to think about folks who don't have legal counsel and would simply take Medicare's correspondence at face value! The Holland Law Firm successfully challenged Medicare immediately and the matter was corrected within the week. I highly recommend the Holland Law Firm for estate planning, and especially for issues with Medicare.

  • Mr. Holland and his staff have been extremely helpful when it comes to navigating the confusing and difficult waters of elder care. The dignity shown to our father in talking through some difficult subjects has been so very appreciated. Every question has been answered in a timely manner. They are organized and thorough. The Medicaid process was virtually pain-free! I would recommend the Holland Elder Law Firm to anyone needing assistance with their elderly loved one's affairs. Their care and expertise has allowed us to focus on our mother instead of paperwork! If there were 10 stars I would give them all 10!

  • Dealing with someone that has Alzheimer's is the most stressful thing I've lived through. I am so thankful that I found Holland Elder Care, they were there for me each and every step through the process. There were times I thought I couldn't go on, but they continued to push forward and console me through this very traumatic event. They never gave up or stopped fighting for us and I will be forever grateful. I can assure you, these guys most definitely are worth their weight in gold.

  • After two failed attempts on my own to get the Medicaid approval my father needs, The Holland Elder Law Firm was able to get him approved within 3-4 months. They were respectful, knowledgeable, and really helped educate us through the process. They patiently and expertly walked us through our unique situation and shared their experience of what to expect as the case proceeded. I can't recommend them more - we were able to get my father the care he needed quickly during the COVID-19 craziness and he is doing so much better because of it. We literally couldn't have done this without them! If I could give them more stars, I would.

  • I needed to submit an application for my Mother for Medicaid. It was our first time applying and the process is intimidating. The Holland Law firm with Michael and Martin made the process less intimidating. They knew the ins and outs of what needed to be done and how it needed to be done. They were meticulous! They treated me with respect and were always available to answer concerns and questions with what seemed like the speed of light. I recently found out that my Mother did get approved for Medicaid. I couldn't have gotten through it without them. I talked with a couple of law firms but after speaking with them I knew they were the one. Everyone including Spencer and Kathy was helpful and on top of things. I would not hesitate to use them again. They were just wonderful.

  • The whole staff at Holland Law Firm have been wonderful to work with to help get the Medicaid coverage needed for my step-dad's care. Without their help, care, and close communications I am not sure we would ever have navigated the Medicaid system! We had many unforeseen complications due to some of our family members that rattled us but never them. I'm sure they've seen everything before & they kept assuring us a positive outcome, they were sooo right!! And even after completing the case, they still called & explained what to expect from here & assured us if we had ANY questions just call. I don't know any attorneys that do that!! I am sure glad we found them & consider them a God Sent to our family.

  • I feel extremely lucky to have found the folks at Holland Elder Law Firm. When we were no longer able to care for our mother at home, they handled the application for Medicaid for the nursing home as well as spousal protections for my father, who was still living “in the community”. They were knowledgeable, caring and quick to respond. In addition, they took their time to answer questions. We always felt we were a priority and never rushed out of the office or off the phone. A special shout out to Martin…you made a very difficult decision and process much easier to navigate. I thank you all.

  • I highly recommend the Michael Holland Law Firm. They have taken my hand and led me through the mound of paper work to qualify my husband for Medicaid. I am sure I would not have been able to do the job by myself.

    As I stated earlier in this letter I was full of doubts, stress and uncertain about the future. The members of the team treated me like family and I am very proud to recommend them to others.
