Rothkoff was very helpful in obtaining Medicaid benefits and protecting assets for our relative. They were friendly, attentive to detail, and always responsive to our questions and concerns. I wholeheartedly recommend them.

We had a very good experience working with the Rothkoff Law Firm. They were very accommodating and a great help with all of our needs. Jennifer and Bryan were very helpful and easy to work with. We would contact them again, if the need came up again and highly recommend them to our family and friends. Thank you.

We hired the Rothkoff Group to assist us with our Mom who is in failing health. They helped us find an excellent assisted living facility as well as setting her up financially. We have peace of mind knowing our Mom is well cared for in her new home. The advice and action taken to maximize her money in extending her care was invaluable. We highly recommend this firm to help plan and manage your loved ones care.

We are a large family (8 siblings). In the past year, we have had to place both of our elderly parents in facilities. Fortunately, from the beginning of this journey, we have been working with all of the wonderful people at the Rothkoff Law Group. They have held our hand through the entire process. We all agree that this was one of the most intelligent moves we have made as a family. All of the people we have worked with: the social worker (Janie), the Medicade Specialist (Jennifer), the paralegal who reviews all of the documents (Jacinda), the secretaries and Jerry himself take a real personal interest in us and in our parents. We say this has been the best money we have ever invested!

I am forever grateful to Rothkoff Law Group. After my dad experienced a life changing brain injury three years ago, my family and I had no idea what was involved or how to go about doing anything properly regarding his finances and future set up. I was fortunate enough to have been introduced to Bryan early on in my dads life event, and I immediately knew I needed his help and services. Bryan was able to share his own personal reasons why he was passionate about elder care, and as someone who had to leave my dad in the hands of the chaotic and not always straightforward healthcare system during that time, it was a wave of relief to have someone I knew would have my dad's best interest in mind. My family and I would never have this sense of confidence taking care of my dad without Rothkoff. The team approach keeps me on track with what I need to be doing and everyone is always on the same page. Estate planning, Guardianship, Medicaid are all things that Rothkoff has assisted me with from scratch and I wouldn't have it any other way. This is what they do, I can instill my trust in them without a doubt, and have continued to do so. If you are reading this review, you are obviously in a situation where you need an elder law attorney so stop searching and call Rothkoff.

The people at the Rothkoff Law Firm could not have done a better job for me. I needed someone to guide me thru a very distressing time in my life. The associates at the law firm were knowledgeable and took care of things that I wasn't even aware I would need. They responded within the same business day, when I reached out to them and I would definitely recommend the firm to others who need guidance navigating the medicare and medicaid systems.

If it wasn't for Rothkoff Law Group I don't know where I would be with my brothers estate right now. They helped us every step of the way until we got my brother to where he needs to be. Bryan Adler, Manon Adcock and Tina Kane were key to our planning. I would recommend Rothkoff to anyone that needs help with elder care planning. Thank you Rothkoff.

I called the Rothkoff Group Law firm on Friday 12/13/19 requesting to speak with an Elder attorney regarding our family property rights to our fathers property housed in his girlfriends’ home. I spoke with Amanda. She told me a “ Client Service Director” named Jacinda Graham would call me back right away to direct me to the correct attorney in their group who could assist me. When I received no return call I again called on Monday 12/16/19 and spoke with Amanda again who told me Jacinda got the message, and reiterated she would call me back(which she never did). I am an out of state physician trying to get a simple estate question answered, and have instead gotten the run around and apparently a cold shoulder. If one person has had this experience, there are likely 99 others who have had a similar experience. Stay away from this firm, as apparently they don’t need the business.

When my wife first met with Jerry Rothkoff and his staff over 4 years ago, we were very comfortable immediately with the kind of totally integrated services that the firm provides including the coordination of selecting the best care facilities in the area to accommodate my wife's mother's needs. Although we were initially hesitant to move forward due to the professional fee, we cannot emphasize how much comfort and service we received which has made that fee a totally moot point. In more recent years we have become even more grateful for the compassionate people who work for the firm. We highly and without reservation recommend that anyone with elderly and/or ailing family members utilize the services of the Rothkoff Law Group.

Highly recommend this group.

I am a 58 year old married. 5 years ago my husband was diagnosed with MS and 2 years later diagnosed with Parkinson's also. He has gotten progressively worse. I was looking for help. Worried about finances and losing our house. Trying to navigate the system to get care for my husband while working full time. I prayed until I couldn't pray with out sobbing. I got an invitation to a coffee hour from Miracle Ear and saw that an Elder Care attorney was going to speak. Answer to prayer, I went!!!! Rothkoff helped our family in so many ways. We now have great caregiver's for my husband he is safe. I have my house and don't have to move and can continue working. They got my husband qualified for all the services that he requires. It isn't easy having a loved whom is sick and you know there is nothing you can do to change a progressive disease, let alone two. Rothkoff walked me thru everything!! Best decision I have made was to hire them. The thing is they treat you like family and they are what we needed at such a difficult time. THANK YOU, Jerry, Shannon and staff we are forever grateful for your hard work and dedication to families!!! We couldn't of done it with out YOU!!! God Bless, Wendy Brown

I have partnered with the Rothkoff Team for about 10 years and couldn't be more impressed with the dedication and professionalism that they show their clients and piers. It is truly an honor do business with such an amazing group of individuals. They are always available and quick to respond to any requests that we have from the office staff or their Social Worker's who are out in the field.

I have known Jerry Rothkoff since the day he ”hung out his shingle.” I have watched him grow from a one man practice into a law firm that is the gold standard in NJ & PA.
I suggested that my husband’s family work with Bryan Adler, Kathleen Magee & the team at the Phila office. They were always available to answer questions & to keep them informed to the progress they were making in untangling a financial nightmare that my father in law created.
I highly recommend Rothkoff Law my clients & friends that need help with end of life & Medicaid planning.

As a professional in the elder care field, I rely on Jerry, Bryan and their team to provide nothing but exceptional service and expert advice. Aside from their impressive legal practice, their team of care coordinators and support staff is outstanding. Jerry has put together a truly dynamic team of professionals that can address all facets of elder care. I rely on them for advice with my clients and families on a regular basis, and am thankful that they are always more than willing to lend a helping hand.

Rothkoff Law Group remains in the forefront of elder care law in the Greater Philadelphia area. As a leader among their peers in long-term care advocacy, life care planning, financial and estate planning, among other resources, Rothkoff Law Group is committed to helping seniors and their families with legal issues involving the aging process. They are, in essence, a virtual single source for legal issues regarding seniors. Rothkoff Law Group has not only the understanding of the law, but exercises compassion when working with seniors and their families. Jerry Rothkoff, along with Bryan Adler, and their fine team of professionals, is dedicated to working to accommodate any of the legal needs seniors have.

Additionally, Rothkoff Law Group hosts various seminars throughout the year in New Jersey and Pennsylvania focused on varying topics important to seniors, as well as elder care professionals in the marketplace. And, their premier events are two elder care symposiums for professionals in New Jersey (April) and Pennsylvania (October). I can tell you from first-hand experience, having attended each of the Pennsylvania symposiums, that Rothkoff Law Group brings timely knowledge and dialogue to these events, through keynote speakers, round table discussions, and breakout learning sessions, that highlight the important topics to the elder care professionals (medical, and non-medical) positioned to deliver the very best care to seniors. Rothkoff Law Group obviously recognizes that knowledge is power.

I highly recommend Rothkoff Law Group to anyone who may, now or in the future, need elder law advice.

Bryan helped with my moms estate. He was extremely kind and understanding and assisted my family every step of the way.. Bryan made a very difficult time bearable. We appreciated his attention to detail, making sure all paperwork was complete. I have shared many times how wonderful he is and have recommended his services to others.

From my initial dealings with this firm and Jerry Rothkoff himself I would not recommend them to anyone. First I was quoted a consultation fee for an hour with Jerry Rothkoff, then Nicole called me to say that it would be half that price for the hour. When I spoke with Jerry for the consultation he spent a lot of time berating me for hiring the wrong elder law attorney that got us into the mess we were in. What's the point in that when that's already done and we're looking to rectify it? He should have been spending the time constructively giving me specific legal advice regarding our situation, of which he had the details. To boot, he spent only 30 minutes with me on the phone, and I never received a refund of the other half of the consultation fee that I paid for but went undelivered by Rothkoff. There are so many qualified attorneys whom I've had the pleasure of speaking with since my discussion with Rothkoff and I can say I'm glad I didn't hire him for anything.

My relationship with the Rothkoff Law Group has been, literally, life changing. After 5 years caring for two ailing parents, I found myself with both Mom and Dad in a short term care facility after lengthy stays in two different hospitals. They were both in need of long term care, and their insurance coverage for rehablitation was running out. To say I was overwhelmed is an understatement, and the stress and time demands were beginning to have an adverse effect on my mental and physical health. After my first meeting with Bryan Adler and the rest of the Rothkoff team, that all changed.

Bryan addressed the immediate problem of my parents continued care in rehab while we searched for the best possible long term care facility for them. He explained the Medicaid eligibility requirements in a way I could understand, and laid out a blueprint to address the application process, which is daunting to say the least. I left that meeting knowing my parents' future was now in the hands of a staff of professionals who were as committed as I to their wellbeing.

My mother passed away shortly after that meeting, but my dad is currently residing in a wonderful facility located 10 minutes from my home. Jennifer Luberski guided me through the Medicaid maze with patience, and I will be forever grateful for her diligence and professionalism. Every question and concern I had during the months long process was addressed immediately, and I was always made to feel that I was her most important client. Tina Kane attends to my father's continued care at the facility, contacting me regularly and reminding me to call with any issues or questions that may arise. Every interaction with every team member has been pleasant and, more importantly, productive.

I would urge anyone in need of elder care legal advice to contact the Rothkoff Law Group without hesitation.

I would recommend the Rothkoff team to anyone who has a question or problem relating to elder care. They have helped my family in transitioning my mother from independent living to skilled nursing care. They were with us every step of the way. They attended mom's care conferences and were always available by person or by phone to handle any issues that arose.

Our experience with Rothkoff law has been excellent. We choose to work with Jerry and his team because of their unique set of services. The combination of legal, social services and insurance advocacy is exactly what we need given the complex set of issues facing our family. The Rothkoff team has been there with us every step of the way.
We certainly recommend Rothkoff Law for anyone with questions on how to best care for an aging loved one.

Jerold Rothkoff is a sponge. Don't hire this arrogant shyster - you might as well give each family member a $12,000.00 gift and simply spend down the rest of the estate and submit the application to your local welfare office for Medicaid approval and hope that your elderly mother or father gets approved. THIS IS NOT AN EXAGGERATION.

Rothkoff is supposed to provide asset protection for the heirs to the estate but won't communicate to any sibling whom he is supposed to be protecting inheritances for. His stock answer to a family member named in the will of the Medicaid applicant and authorized to discuss affairs and provide information to is this: "I am obligated release information to only, not to contract, terminate or engage any services." Mr. Rothkoff does not care whom he is contracted to provide asset protection to once the family member signs on the dotted line. Why? Because he will line his pockets with as many fees as possible from the estate of the Medicaid applicant. People who think that they got great service from him are totally unaware of what this sponge does because of the complicated process for Medicaid approval.

This sponge charges $225.00-an-hour for a single phone call, $300.00-an- hour for each and every meeting, $145.00-an-hour to contact the nursing home, hospitals and any medical practitioner, $300.00-an-hour to review documents and every single email, $125.00-an-hour to contact banks and other financial institutions and $225.00-an-hour to contact the courts and welfare offices.

Ask Little Sponge Jerry for an invoice of his "services" before you write a positive review for him. Oh, and if you have written a positive review for him - ASK HIM FOR THE SAME THING - IT WILL OPEN YOUR EYES!

Do yourself a favor and contact a teaching attorney for asset protection who will handle everything for you for A FLAT FEE. Do not spend more than $8000.00 - $10,000.00 for asset protection and the Medicaid application. Arrogant Little Sponge Jerry would be out of business if more people knew this.

A teaching attorney will give you a detailed plan of action and a list of necessary documents for Medicaid approval - FOR A FLAT FEE - and do a better job than Shyster Sponge Little Jerry.

The sponge responded and lied about his fees. I can assure everyone reading that that those are the fees that he charged.

Here are three more reviews where people complain about the arrogant little lying sponge:

I had the worst experience when I used Mr. Rothkoff to assist with long term care planning for my grandfather. Mr. Rothkoff was abrupt, condescending, and abrasive. While his office staff were nothing but pleasant, his off-putting manners counteracted any rapport my family felt with that office. Here are specific examples of his behavior: 1.) When I asked questions, he would often tell me that either he was not going to answer that yet or ask me what I thought, then say, "Well there's your answer". 2.) Our two hour meeting ended after only an hour and a half, mostly due to his lack of interest in our situation. This was clear by the tone in his voice and the lack of information he supplied. 3.) Rather than staying focused on the task at hand, he spent several minutes in off-topic conversation that did interest him, such as fishing, the restaurants in my neighborhood, etc. Considering the amount of money he was provided for his time, I expected him to not only treat us with respect but also to have substantial information to take away. All in all, I believe the visit was a waste of time. I would not recommend him to anyone seeking support for elder care planning. Someone with better manners and true empathy for the concerns of the family would be a better candidate.

The arrogant little sponge responded below - he is a liar. If you have done business with the sponge then ask for a full disclosure of the fees that he charged - for every meeting, phone call and email.

We have been with the Rothkoff Law Group for the past several years in connection with my mother's care. We have found Jerry and all of his staff to be most knowledgeable, professional, and helpful in the services provided for her. They are very efficient and always available to assist us in problem solving. We highly recommend this group for elder care law.

My family has had the pleasure of using the Rothkoff Law Group, twice.
Once for our mother’s benefit that included long-term care planning, asset protection and Veteran’s Aid and Assistance benefits.
The second time was recently. I needed estate planning that included a Trust, a Will, a Power of Attorney and a Healthcare Power of Attorney.
Both times we received outstanding service. I would recommend their service to anyone.

I have been a client of the Rothkoff group and specifically Mr. Jerald Rothkoff for over 3 and a half years. I am the sole responsible party regarding the affairs of my elderly - 95 year old and 98 year old - parents. Our initial contact with this firm and Mr. Rothkoff was superb. My wife, being an attorney, was also very impressed with Mr. Rothkoff's vast knowledge and expertise of all aspects relating to Elder Law issues and the clarity in his approach to the vast problems we and my parents were facing regarding their necessary transition to a care facility. He and his firm's sequential, deliberate and organized approach allowed extreme ease for us to accomplish the multitude of tasks involved in transitioning my parents to an assisted care facility. He has an extremely competent and knowledgeable staff including lawyers, geriatric social workers, financial consultants, administrative staff exclusively dedicated to working with the Veteran's Administrative Agency and all other governmental - local, state and federal - agencies.
He and his staff have all been very immediately accessible and responsive to any issues that have arisen relating to any aspects of my parents care - weather it be financial, medical in both the facility in which they reside or during their multiple hospitalizations, or social or administrative issues at their resident facility.
Our relationship with the Rothkoff Group has been quite refreshing from a financial perspective since we initially decided upon and engaged the services of Mr. Rothkoff and his fine staff 3 and a half years ago. He and his staff's services are billed by an upfront very reasonable yearly fee for which there are no restrictions upon the frequency nor the intricacy of the matters which for which we contact them for advise, counsel and the services they perform.
I have recommended his firm and services to many individuals whom I know, who have been in similar situations of caring for the total wellbeing and financial aspects of a loved one. I would strongly endorse and recommend he and his firm to anyone finding themselves in similar situations.

Jerry just helped my mother complete the very difficult process of applying for and getting Medicaid. My mother was living at home until recently but had a medical incident and went to hospital. After recovering, she wasn't able to return home but needed long-term care. But without Medicaid, which was in process (but bureaucracies have their own timetable), she had few options. Fortunately, Jerry has set up a bridge process with a couple of local care facilities that enabled Mom to get excellent care while waiting for her application to be accepted. That process was finalized a couple of weeks ago but she was already settled and does not have to go through an additional transition. The Rothkoff law firm has been a blessing to my mother and our family.

I could not have survived the Medicaid application process and my father's transition to a nursing home facility without all of the support and knowledge from the Rothkoff Law Team! They handled every aspect of the move including meeting with the facility quarterly regarding my father's care to handling a disgruntled spouse. Hiring them was worth every dime and more. I don't believe that I would have received Medicaid assistance for my father without them and I would recommend them to anyone who needs any kind of assistance with elderly care!

I engaged the professional services of the Rothkoff Law Group 6 years ago, when my Mother's declining mobility resulted in a medical emergency. Since that time, we have received nothing but top-notch professional legal advise and compassionate support. Their professional staff have helped us make decisions that secured the best care for my Mother. Their geriatric case management services make Jerry's group very unique and invaluable.

When someone you love gets sick or passes away, you need a friend by your side that has dealt with the issues before and knows how to help you manage them.

4 years ago, when my father passed away suddenly, Rothkoff Law Group was there to help us make sense of what to do next.

After that, when my mother got sick, Rothkoff Law Group was there to help us figure out how to care for her properly.

Rothkoff Law Group has been a steady stream of great advice since the first time I spoke with them. I really didn't even know that I needed them, and before you know it, they were giving me answers to questions that I didn't even realize that I was going to have yet.

They have a lifetime of experience, understand all of the issues and know how to handle all of the situations related to aging, and how to handle the responsibilities that come with the passing of a loved one.

I trust Rothkoff Law Group, and feel very comfortable that they will be there to help us make the best decisions when we need them to.

Please don't wait to contact this office. Now is the time to contact Jerold Rothkoff at Rothkoff Law Group for help with answers to questions about your aging loved ones.

I had been with the Rothkoff Law Group for over 3 years for my mother Irene. From the first day the entire staff have been short of wonderful. They were with us every step of the way to answer the numerous questions that always came up. From my mothers case work Jennifer who provided so much information and was a great source to turn to the rest of the staff who guided us through the many medical and legal issues that came up. I finally lost my mom this February and am still working with the firm to help wrap up my moms estate. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is dealing with elder care issue their guidance was nothing short of great.

I was suddenly faced with having to move my mother into assisted living. It is and overwhelming, life changing experience and one I could not have managed by myself with out the expertise of the Rothkoff Law Firm. The staff are always just a phone call or email away to provide me with legal advice, guidance and many times even moral support. Every member of Jerry's staff is expert in a particular area of elder care law and the process and paper work involved. I am glad I retained the Rothkoff team!
