It has been a few years since we set up all of this and have had some wonderful life changes. Both our kids are married and both have had babies, so we plan to set up a follow-up appointment with Misha to see what we need to change.

I highly recommend the Farr Law Firm for eldercare planning. I rapidly needed to make decisions…read morefor my mother's long-term care, as she had just entered a nursing home in Pennsylvania due to dementia. Because of the expertise, professionalism, and compassion of the Farr Law Firm I was able to meet with attorney Farr quickly and be apprised of my options. In short order, the firm, through Jeannie, helped me place my mother in a nearby, highly rated nursing home in Virginia (NOT an easy task) and supported me through several Medicare appeals regarding the initial part of Mom's care. Other members of the Elder Law Team, paralegals Seresa and Grace, provided total support for a successful Medicaid application, complicated by a claim for a Medicaid Caregiver Exemption for my brother. Grace continues to provide exceptional service on all matters big and small. She is professional and expert in explaining and implementing the steps in the process of qualifying for eligibility and protecting assets. She is knowledgeable and reassuring in examining the what-ifs of different complicated scenarios. She was stalwart in responding in those rare instances of nursing home billing errors when the corporate "tone" became unnecessarily adversarial. I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude for her help whenever needed. My mother's estate is modest. With the help of the Farr Law Firm her assets are protected to the greatest extent permissible, far more than I imagined and that I could have achieved on my own. Most importantly, because of attorney Farr's expertise my mother's wishes regarding my brother were able to be honored. The fees of the Farr Law Firm are extremely fair given the results they are able to achieve. I continue to retain their excellent services.

We provided our contact information as required. Over a week later, no response (no phone call or voicemail and no email, and yes we checked our spam and promotions folders). Attached is a screenshot after submitting the webform showing it was received and "We will get back to you as soon as possible!" It's obvious by now they are not going to respond. The professional thing to do is respond even if they don't feel they can help us, instead of simply ignoring the inquiry. And there are no excuses such as: "We never check inquiries via our website." If that's the case then remove the webform from your website. "We prefer that inquiries are made over the phone." If that's the case then again, remove the webform from your website. "The employee responsible for checking the online inquiries forgot to do it." The employee should be counseled about the potential loss of business to the law firm by such inattentive behavior. "We read your inquiry and decided we can't or won't help you, for whatever reason." The professional and responsive thing to do in this case is to simply communicate that to the person who submitted the inquiry.

Cary Cucinelli and Valerie Geiger have provided excellent help to my brother, who was in very poor health and under nursing care. A local friend was acting as my brother's healthcare and financial power of attorney, and the burden of those duties was becoming too much for her. Cucinelli-Geiger efficiently unloaded the friend from a multitude of administrative duties, while keeping her fully informed. As it happens, my brother passed away within one month, and C-G is now assisting us with processing his estate, including selling his house. We have been very happy with their skills, their communication, their support staff, and their compassion. I recommend C-G to anyone who needs assistance for an elder in Virginia - these folks know their stuff.
