If you are interested in applying for Medicaid, you may wish to consider involving a lawyer to help you with your application.

NY Attorney, Steven Melnik, can review your particular situation to determine your eligibility and can represent your interests and legal rights through the process of seeking the financial assistance you need.

Even if you already have health insurance coverage or are concerned that you have too much money to qualify for nursing home benefits, a lawyer can review the particular matter to determine how to help you through the application process. The Melnik Law Group, PLLC proudly serves clients in Manhattan, Brooklyn and throughout New York City.
