Testimonials
"If you wake up one day and find yourself needing the services of an elder law attorney, Ron M Landsman is your man. One day I did after my husband's hospital stay transitioned to longterm care. What to do? A good friend recommended Ron to me. After the first telephone call, I felt totally de-stressed. I felt as if those problems were lifted from my shoulders."

"I began using the office of Ron Landsman after the sudden death of my husband. We had been discussing the need for a new and updated will, but as so often happens had not proceeded in this matter. Having three adult children in different stages of their own lives, and not having had a discussion with my husband as how to change the very old will which he had left me practically emotionally paralyzed as to how to proceed. I had many questions - the "if-then" type. Both Ron Landsman and Kimberly Kasberg were patient beyond expectation in explaining the possibilities and consequences of the many options I considered. They were a sensitive and reassuring influence when dealing with my many phone calls and were both kind and extremely helpful in answering my questions."

"My daughter's physician said that qualifying her for SSI "would not be successful, at least not the first attempt." Her DC attorney referred her to Ron M. Landsman. Ron got her qualified his first attempt. [When] SSI bureaucrats tried to reduce or even deny her benefits, Ron Landsman had them restored."

"Mr Landsman is nothing short of a life saver. The Elder Law issues he helped my family with were too complex for us. Mr Landsman sorted thru the issues like a surgeon. His staff (Hi Kimberly and Tom) is so helpful and caring. We are getting ready to visit again soon to continue following the plan he has laid out."

"It is difficult to imagine trying to navigate the complex Medicaid application process, especially in light of my mother’s Alzheimer’s, without the excellent guidance and knowledge provided by Ron Landsman and his staff. Mr. Landsman’s paralegal, Thomas Hennrikus, provided hands-on legal advice and document preparation assistance that made the nine month Medicaid application process successful. Subsequent annual applications were also greatly expedited through the expert guidance of Mr. Landsman’s staff. In the future, we plan to engage Mr. Landsman for all of our eldercare legal issues."
