I'll forever know that their guidance prevented us from making many bad decisions.

Hurley Elder Care Law went to work for my Mother and navigated all of the Government red tape and got her approved for Medicaid in short order. I, as her POA, could not even begin to climb the mountain of paperwork on my own.

David Q.

Very comfortable atmosphere. They treat you like you are one of the family.

Val B.

Due to aging, escalating health and cost concerns for both my husband and myself, I chose to work with Hurley Elder Care to do care and estate planning. I am so very pleased with the result. I have a much improved understanding of the complexity of this process, the necessary documents, timing, regulations and the need for professional guidance.

Gina M.

Wallace M.
