Due to a family member's interference in my Mother-in-Law's financial affairs, we had been told by numerous individuals and agencies that she could never be Medicaid qualified when it became apparent that long term care was now necessary. A cousin and another agency suggested we call the Oldham Law Firm. After explaining our situation, Mr Oldham offered us hope in the form of his Medicaid Specialist, Erin Hodges. What a gift she is! Walked me through everything, encouraging me and holding my hand through the entire journey. And believe it or not, she did all of this from a distance. My Mother-in-Law is happily settled in long term care in Paragould, while my husband and I got everything squared away from Upstate NY. Only with the help of the Oldham Law Firm and Erin Hodges could we have accomplished this. If I could give a hundred, thousand or million stars to these warm and wonderful people, I would!

They are phenomenal!!! They take the time to help you with all of your needs, paperwork you will need, and are overall just genuine people who care about you, the client. We spent many hours in the office, on the phone and emailing trying to get medicaid for my dad. They don't take no for an answer. They will fight for you to get your loved one approved. I could not have gotten through these last several months without Erin, Chad's paralegal. She kept me grounded and was always there to assure me when I was in doubt and worrying if we would get approved. Again, I highly recommend Oldman Law Firm. They are the BEST!!!
