"Working with Esther Zelmanovitz and Esty Levinson was an exceptional experience. Estate planning can feel overwhelming, but they guided us through the process with patience, kindness, and genuine care"
As my father's health deteriorated, I was completely overwhelmed. I realized that my parents needed assistance, physically and financially; much more than I was able to give them. I had a million questions about getting help in the house for him, Medicaid, and how to protect his assets. When it came time to get professional advice, I was referred to the law firm of Esther Schwartz Zelmanovitz, PLLC, which is comprised of two amazing attorneys, Esther Zelmanovitz and Esty Levinson. From the onset, Esther Zelmanovitz allayed my fears. In our first consultation, she anticipated my questions and explained the whole complicated process in simple terms - from estate planning to the Medicaid application. As a result, I was able to easily convey all of the information to my parents so that they could make an informed decision about their future. Esther's first meeting with my parents was via telephone, which was extremely convenient since my father was in a rehabilitation center recovering from surgery. At that time, she explained the process to them and went over the estate plan that she devised for them. The estate planning documents were drafted in a timely matter, and Esther went to the rehab center to finalize and execute them. After the estate planning was in place, Esty Levinson handled the Medicaid application. Being in unfamiliar territory, from the terminology to the procedure, I was grateful to have Esty to guide me through the process. Uncertain what documents I needed for the application, Esty had a chart of all the assets, explained what documentation was needed, and how to get it. Her experience and knowledge of the process was vast, and she was able to answer all my questions. I was anticipating a lot of work on my end, but Esty streamlined the process for me. Her patience and professionalism made me feel at ease and confident that we were making the right decision. Throughout the whole process, both Ester and Esty were accommodating and supportive. It was a seamless method applied in a timely manner. No one wants to be in this type of situation, but getting attorneys, like Esther and Esty, to handle it was the smartest decision I made. Working with Esther Zelmanovitz and Esty Levinson was an exceptional experience. Estate planning can feel overwhelming, but they guided us through the process with patience, kindness, and genuine care. They took the time to listen to our concerns, explain our options in plain language, and ensure we felt comfortable with every decision. What stood out most was not only their expertise and professionalism, but also their compassion and personal attention. We always felt that our family’s best interests were their priority. Thanks to their guidance, we now have tremendous peace of mind knowing everything is in order and my father is getting the care that he needs. I am truly grateful for their help and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy, and caring estate attorneys.
