Applying for Medicaid
It is extremely important to obtain professional assistance with the Medicaid application process. Many individuals are told after their initial application that they are ineligible for Medicaid. Our New Jersey Medicaid attorneys have extensive experience and have successfully completed and presented many of these applications. We can explain why you or your loved one should not be disqualified even after asset transfers and we advocate for you and your loved ones.
Helping Throughout the Medicaid Application Process
Our attorneys are dedicated to removing the burden of Medicaid applications from clients and their families. The Medicaid application is time-consuming. Once submitted, it may be denied if almost any detail does not conform to the established standard. Our attorneys will assist you during the entire process, from gathering the required information to appealing a negative decision.

A Summary of the Application Process
Clients tell us that we have made their lives much easier by helping with their Medicaid applications. The steps that we take are listed here:
- Meet with clients to tell them what documents are needed
- Review and evaluate documentation
- If the review reveals issues that may affect the outcome of the application, discuss these issues with the client and develop mitigating strategies
- Complete the application using the client-supplied documents
- File the application with the appropriate County Board of Social Services
- Communicate and explain the decision to the client
- File a request for a hearing if the initial decision was negative
- After benefits are awarded, help clients manage their incomes and undertake estate planning to assure continuation of Medicaid
Our attorneys have completed many Medicaid applications in the area. We know that each county differs in its approach. We incorporate our knowledge of these differences into the process so that our clients' applications are not denied because of a failure to address county-specific concerns.
