All I can say is Wow ! I have never seen a team attack and solve a problem like Hurley. We lost our father and two weeks later our mother suffered a severe stroke. Nursing home costs were draining their life savings, but Hurley found a solution and got things under control.

The firm’s responsiveness has been superb, their work flawless and their advice kind, compassionate and professional. I'll forever know that their guidance prevented us from making many bad decisions.

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.
