Founder Reid McCarthy established the firm to help seniors and their families cope with Estate Planning, Elder Law, and Medicaid issues. His approach focuses on planning for incapacity, nursing care, and pre-death family issues, not just avoiding probate or transferring assets after death. This perspective developed after he helped his grandmother manage the costs of his grandfather’s stroke and subsequent nursing home stay. He applies the same care and energy from that personal experience to his clients, combining years of gained knowledge and experience with direct attention.

The firm operates as a boutique law practice where McCarthy answers his own phone and is available to make house calls. He does not pass cases off to paralegals, ensuring personalized attention for clients facing Medicaid crises. The process begins by talking about the family to identify values and goals, then presenting strategies to accomplish those goals. The attorneys help navigate complex situations involving Medicaid law, estate planning law, tax law, disability law, and family law, as well as complicated family dynamics. They also provide guidance and counseling to assist spouses or adult children caring for a partner or parent.
