Halley and her team, both Halley & Jessica specifically were amazing. Being out of state, and learning CT laws for Medicaid, Wills, POA and all other applications to ensure that my parents were taken care of, I can not explain what a peace of mind I was given. Not only from a legal standpoint but also from an emotional, and almost therapeutic basis. They were available at all hours, extremely responsive, and educated me and my family and provided reassurance during a very emotional and stressful time. Even when my father passed, they were there for me and my family, to help guide us through the process. I can not thank them enough! I highly recommend them!

It is a terrible thing to outlive your assets. My sisters and I were referred to Attorney Allaire in order to plan for the caring of our now 96 year old mother. We realized that, even with all the help available from resources like the Senior Center, etc., we needed the expertise of a professional, knowledgeable in elder law. We dealt with a myriad of complex issues such as the will, advanced directives, real estate, Veterans Administration benefits, live in care providers and their agency, involvements with the Plan of Connecticut and finally Medicaid. Dealing with the Federal and State of Connecticut agencies is complex and confusing at times. Attorney Allaire’s very highly skilled staff members were wonderful in guiding us through each phase of the journey. Charlotte proved to be an able and effective team leader and coordinator. Her guidance and counsel proved so valuable to us all. Daniella was our lifeline to the office. When questions arose, she answered our calls and emails quickly. Her home care visits and assessments reassured our Mom that things would work out well. Because of her caring nature, she interacts with seniors in a kind, gentle and gracious way. Linda was wonderful in obtaining Veterans Administration benefits and then terminating them when Medicaid was granted. She worked tirelessly to achieve her goals, which were unfortunately made more complicated by the agency itself. Irene was responsible for the application and the granting of Medicaid. Her wonderful sense of humor combined with her years of experience in that field, worked wonders. Whenever I was confused or frustrated with the volumes of paperwork, she assured me things would work out well, and she was always right. Our Mom is still living at home, happily, and we have to thank the wonderful staff members of Allaire Elder Law for their skill, knowledge and expertise in making this happen.

My sister and I are soooo thankful for Attorney Allaire, Charlotte, Amanda and the rest of the staff for ALL of their help and expertise with our parent’s elder care needs. It started years ago with the basics: wills, power of atty. etc. A few years later, unfortunately, both parents went into the hospital at the same time. Thank goodness we had the paperwork in order.
Now for the last year plus, Attorney Allaire and his staff has helped us with the paperwork after our father passed away; referred us to a great nursing home for our mom, and through the approval for Medicaid coverage. We could not have done it without you! Thank you for everything!!!

The folks at Allaire Elder Law are without a doubt the kindest and most understanding people. Attorney Allaire clearly curates an atmosphere of excellence in his practice and I doubt any attention to detail has ever been overlooked.

Attorney Stephen Allaire was very approachable, professional, and easy to talk to at my level. He helped me compose a will, guided me as a senior citizen on how to protect my assets, and gave me invaluable advice for my future. I am extremely pleased with his services.

Do not recommend. Charged me a huge retainer, then when we ended up not needing their services, refused to refund anything.

My father planned for his future with Steve Allaire. He was concerned with protecting his assets for later in life and leaving something behind for his children. He often said it was one of the smartest things he had done.
When it came time for long term care, Allaire Elder Law was there to handle everything; the staff was a pleasure to work with.

I went to Allaire Elder Law for help and advice when applying for Medicaid for my mother. All the people there were very patient and helpful to me in navigating the complex application process and they fielded all questions from the State Case handlers so I could concentrate on gathering the needed information needed to complete the process. They made the process as quick and painless as possible for me so I could get my mom the help she needed.
I will definitely turn to them again if I need help in the future.

Simply put, Allaire Elder Law is exceptional. I reached out to them (I live in NJ) when my father was ill and they helped me sort out his estate by providing me with legal advice, asset protection and related services, including Medicaid. Not only are they extremely knowledgeable but they are extremely compassionate as well. Their entire team went above and beyond to assist my father and me and; for that, I will forever be grateful. They truly are an amazing team and I highly recommend them without hesitation.

As a Director of one of the largest home care agencies in the State, I have had the privilege to work with Allaire Elder Law professionally for many years.
I can honestly say that they are a top notch law firm specializing in Estate Planning, Trusts, Probate, Medicaid application and planning, Elder Care support, Life Care Planning and all aspects of Elder Law.
Their team of committed and experienced professionals are unparalleled in the industry.
I have never received anything but positive feedback from any and all of the clients that I have referred for assistance over the years.
I feel highly confident that my clients are always going to receive the best individualized planning and support.
I have the utmost trust in the entire team at Allaire Elder Law!

Attorney Allaire and his staff helped guide us through the Medicaid process for my mother. Our family was very pleased with their service and we would highly recommend them.

Allaire Elder Law navigated the maze of challenges presented in getting Dad Medicaid support. We never would have succeeded without their knowledge, experience and guidance.

Stephen Allaire and his team has been with us every step of the way as we prepared for my mother's long-term care needs and ensured a smooth Title XIX application. They regularly check in with us, and have made calls to my parents' house and the nursing home where my mother is currently residing. Elder Law is highly specialized, and Allaire and his team have that specialty down.

I have had the pleasure of working with Attorney Allaire and his team for both my mother and my grandfather. In both experiences, they have been incredibly helpful in assessing each family member and what is best for each of them. The Medicaid process can be very trying and arduous for everyone involved but they have made it as stress-free as possible for family members, and have handled each case with care and an empathetic touch that is very appreciated.
If you are looking for an elder law attorney/practice that will assist you on multiple levels and assure you receive the best attention for your loved one(s), I cannot emphasize enough recommending a better Elder Law practice in the area than Allaire Elder Law.

Allaire Elder Law is responsible for the amazing position our 93 year Mom is in now! Stephen Allaire and his knowlegable staff helped is to deal with legal issues, hospital and rehab issues, Assisted Living selection and paperwork as well as bill payment management. Our Mom is now in a wonderful Assisted Living home where she is comfortable and happy. Stephen is patient and explains carefully how to deal with the long list of situations that come with having a parent in their 90's. The services and counsel we received from Allaire greatly reduced our stress and produced a wonder result. Don't try to do this alone - it is just too hard! These professional know what they are doing.

The State and Federal government have made it almost impossible for the average person to understand and deal with the laws and regulations pertaining to Elder Care.
I hired Steve Allaire who along with his competent staff guided us through all the hurdles in placing my mom in a nursing home and applying for Title 19.
I could not have, with confidence, done it alone.

I have a very positive experience with Mr. Allaire and his team. Everything went so smoothly only because of the extensive experience. Kind and considerate and compassionate. Every question I had was answered with promptness, and phone calls were returned for even the smallest issues. I love them all. I would recommend them to anyone.

Steve Allaire is a great elder law attorney for numerous reasons. Steve is always aware of the changing laws that effect estate planning and long term care. He is pleasant and personable to work with and does not rush you but explains thoroughly the advantages and disadvantages of your decisions. Steve handled the estate planning and inheritance implications of my parents estate which involved a successful small business and property. My wife and I cannot say enough about Steve's professional savvy in matters of elder law and estate planning.

Steve and his team have been instrumental in guiding our family through setting up my octogenarian parent's estate to minimize estate/inheritance taxes, real estate transaction costs, avoid bankrupting the estate with long term care costs and set up a special needs trust for my youngest brother's long term after my parent's are gone. My in-laws, on the other hand, being penny wise and pound foolish, have put my wife's family in a very difficult situation by not engaging a top professional like Steve, and now face the wiping out their parent's financial legacy as the long term care costs mount. For those families approaching the latter stages of life, I highly recommend you meet with Steve to get the professional help necessary to put the right documents in place to protect your family's long term well being.

We retained Attorney Stephen Allaire for both estate planning and preplanning in case of long term illness. He thoroughly explained the options and coordinated all steps with us to accomplish everything in a professional and timely manner. I would highly recommend his services for all senior planning services.

I have had the pleasure of working with Allaire Elder Law for the past 4 years. Working closely with Stephen Allaire and his staff has allowed me to get a “behind the scenes” perspective of how their firm operates. What stands out to me, above all else, is how much Mr.Allaire and his entire staff care about their clients. I have seen time and time again that it is much more then providing expert legal counsel that they offer but rather, making sure that the families and loved ones have a strong life-care plan in place so they are well taken care of. I highly recommend Allaire Elder Law to anyone who is seeking professional legal counsel but more importantly, a law firm who cares about their clients.
