How to Select The Right Elder Law Attorney To Help You

When you find yourself in need of an Elder Law Attorney, you usually won’t have much time to make a decision. Maybe you just found out that Medicare only covers the first 100 days in nursing home. Maybe you’ve just been told you’re ineligible for Medicaid. Maybe the hospital just informed you they are discharging […]

  • I feel gratitude and comfort knowing my father will be taken care of financially. I definitely recommend the Holland Law Firm.

  • I can say only positive words about the Holland Elder Law Firm. A few years ago my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. While touring nursing facilities, another law firm was referred to me. Unfortunately I did not perform my due diligence and opted to hire the firm to handle my case. I wish I would have found Holland then. The other firm was vague, lacked communication, and of course, overcharged. This was the polar opposite of my experience with the Holland. They were clear, concise and explained everything thoroughly to me. They always responded to my emails and typically within a couple of hours, unlike the previous firm that may not respond at all or would take several days to respond. I was not nickeled and dimed. I wish I would have found them to begin with, especially Martin. He is a rockstar and made the entire process SO easy.

  • I was a bit skeptical at first, but your confidence convinced me I was in good hands for mom’s needs. I kept getting feedback that Holland Law Firm was the experts we needed. I know this approval for Medicaid could not have happened without the Holland firm’s team of experts. My sincere thanks!

  • If anyone is looking for an Elder Attorney, I highly recommend the Holland Law Firm. My Mom has Alzheimer's and having to make the decision to place her in a facility was so heartbreaking and stressful. Then.... there was the COST!!!. They were able to get my Mom qualified for Medicaid on two separate occasions. Before her Husband passed and again after he passed. I would have never guessed they could get her qualified, but they made it happen! Having Michael, Martin and Kathy on my side was nothing short of a Godsend. Thank you again to ALL of the staff for your support, compassion throughout the endless tears and always responding quickly. I am forever grateful!

  • I was at a lost when my Dad became a resident of a nursing home.We met with a local attorney that we were referred to by the nursing facility, but did not feel comfortable with the local attorney's knowledge of Medicaid for our personal situation.I came across the Holland Elder Law Firm online and they promptly took my call. After the first phone conversation I knew they had the experience and the ethical ability to do what was in the best interest for my Dad and our family.I spoke with several members of their team; each were professional as well as personable. Each were very knowledgeable. They communicated regularly with me by phone and email, being considerate of our two hour geographical distance. They never hesitated to take my calls or answer my email to answer even the simplest question.Applying for Medicaid can be overwhelming and they were with me every step of the way, explaining every detail. We received positive results due to their expertise.I would recommend the Holland Elder Law Firm to anyone needing legal representation for their family member.

  • 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 am a believer that word of mouth and written reviews are by far the best advertisement for any business. When someone takes the time to write a five star positive review it usually means that the service was above and beyond their initial expectation.When my dad and I made the decision to seek medicaid to help provide full time nursing home financial assistance for my mom, I started looking on line to figure out the application process. I told my dad that I felt I should call a Lawyers office that specializes in Medicaid Applications for guidance, because there was so much conflicting information out there.What I appreciated when I first called the Holland Elder Law Firm was the professionalism from the time my call was answered.When I started explaining mom's story in summary on the call, I felt comfortable talking about her because the more I said, having someone on the phone with me telling me they had been through very similar situations themselves, assured me that I could trust that my Parents finances would be in competent hands.I quickly set up the free personalized assessment of my family’s Medicaid eligibility that was offered, with my dad. I wanted him to understand it was not a simple process and we were going to need some help. Every step of the process we would go through was lined out on a white board and every detail was explained in as simple language as possible so that we were able to see that this journey was not something we had the knowledge to pursue on our own.Anytime I've had a question about my mom's case, exactly what documents we needed to prove her need for Medicaid, or if I just wanted to make sure I was filling out a document correctly all I needed to do was pick up the phone or send an email and my questions were answered in a way I could understand. I know if we had submitted the information to Medicaid without professional guidance, my moms application would have been denied. Martin helped get the approval by sending complaints to Medicaid on our behalf because the law firm knows a lot more about how the Medicaid approval process works than we would ever understand, and I'm sure we wouldn't have known what to question and eventually we would have given up on the application due to it's complexity.A HUGE thank you to Michael, Martin and the rest of the Holland Elder Law Firm for your continued support! It means a lot knowing that you care about people and were up front and honest sharing information on what will hold up the application process, what documents we would need and how to best manage my Parents personal assets.Thank you again!Bonnie Barnes 5-12-2020

  • 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.

  • 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.
