Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.We couldn't have gotten through the process with out her and her team. She and the firm are clearly experts in Elder Law.
I felt as though my issues with my mother's transition into a nursing home were unique. I was 67... working full time... and an only child. I simply did not have the time or skills to take on this challenge. From our very first meeting, Kandace Scherr made me feel comfortable and confident that she and her staff could tackle all issues including nursing home selection, financial direction, Medicaid application, etc. Not only did she succeed in making these processes seamless but in a time period that far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended.
Kandace was a true blessing to our family. She was incredibly professional, compassionate, and patient as we worked through the Medicaid process for our sweet Mom and Dad. We truly would have been lost without her knowledge, expertise, and dedication to our family. It was an honor to work with Kandace as she so beautifully protected our Mom and Dad with her knowledge and strategies. She allowed us to sleep more peacefully at night, as we worked through all of these decisions for our parents.
My family is very please with the assistance we received from Ms. Scherr and her paralegal, Criselle Anderson. With their help, my family has an estate plan and wills that reflect that planning. Thank you both for working with us patiently and for using language and scenarios that are understandable to those outside the legal profession.
The interaction was not only professional but personal, ensuring that every legal document and need was carefully addressed. In my particular circumstance, Kandace was able to preserve certain assets of the estate and relieved me of the enormous burden of compiling complex detailed financial matters in preparation for Medicaid. I underestimated that scrutiny of the Maryland Bureau of Long-Term care. Kandace and her team were scrupulous in making sure every detail and requirement were met.
My family has been very pleased with the expertise and knowledge of Kandace, Criselle and the services of Frank, Frank and Scherr. We used them to guide us through the process of settling my parents' estate while my father was being approved for Medicaid and being admitted to a nursing home due to Alzheimers Disease. I live in NC, my parents live in DE and my father now lives in a nursing home in MD. Kandace and Criselle were always quick to respond and kept me apprised before, during and aft
We have worked with Kandace and her team for several years and have been extremely pleased with her legal guidance in Eldercare law. She put our family's mind at rest and made sure we understood exactly what our options were and how to implement them. She was able to help us apply for Medicaid approval for my Mother who had Alzheimer's disease and was going into a nursing home. Her knowledge and expertise were always just a phone call away and her timely response and follow-up were exceptional!
Kandace Scherr and her team are extremely knowledgeable and have always provided me with immediate and concise responses, detailed updates and well explained instructions. I have utilized the expertise of Kandace Scherr and her team on multiple occasions and she handles all matters with a high degree of professionalism and thoroughness. I always recommend Kandace Scherr and the attorneys at Frank, Frank & Scherr to anyone facing issues involving elder law, Medicare or Medicaid!
Kandace (Kandy) is knowledgeable, kind, and was able to take care of everything we needed after my dad passed. She even helped us take care of things that we didn't even think of! While paying for a lawyer is expensive, we feel that it was worth it and you "get what you pay for." We visited her office based on a recommendation and now I know why. I highly recommend her for your estate planning needs.
