I do not understand the high ratings on this man. My experience with him is directly opposite. He is (subtly) pushy and manipulative. I am glad I went with a different lawyer after getting a second opinion.

My recent experience with Ben Eckman and his associate makes it easy to give a 5 star rating. They are responsive, thorough, and understanding. Any questions are quickly answered and they are extremely knowledgeable. I will use them again should the need arise!

Benjamin is a true professional and extremely reliable. He responds quickly and doesn't hesitate to help you out with any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Mr. Beckman for Panning, Eldercare and Advice.

He gave us multiple options to achieve my mother's ability to get Medicaid. He was as happy to complete the tasks 100% himself, to work with us, or to inform or support us as we completed it ourselves. With his guidance, an following it to a T, which took me 5 weeks before we met, and 3 weeks after, I was able to get my mother on Medicare about 6 weeks after we met!

My family was put in a situation where one of our parents had a medical emergency and was placed in a nursing home. It was out of state for my family. Mr. Eckman was extremely helpful not only in explaining New Jersey law as it pertained to our situation but he also helped us to make sure we knew what to look for once we were able to bring my parent back to our home state. There were so many details and intricacies that would have overwhelmed us given the medical emergency we were dealing with. Mr. Eckman was able to make the rules and regulations understandable and alleviate a lot of the worries and fears we were presented with. His knowledge of elder care law was spot on and was able to give us the confidence we needed to properly care for our parent. Less
