Ben and his team provide amazing suppport for those of us ‘Boomers’ who are part of the sandwich generation. Trying to plan for the needs of a grade school child AND elderly parents requires the empathy and expertise that Generation Law provides head and shoulders above the rest! I recommend them to my clients, friends and family on a regular basis.
By the time you need Ben’s services, you are confused by the maze of regulation; often fighting with the differences between your state and the one in which your loved one lives; and looking for someone sharp, empathic and able to cut through the mess in an organized and straight-talk way. Lots of people out there claim to be that person. From personal experience, Ben IS!
