Barnes & Thornburg LLP

Charles Backs is truly the best! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about elder law and Medicaid, and he makes a complicated process feel simple and stress-free. He’s patient, thorough, and always takes the time to explain every step so you feel confident in your decisions. I recommend him to absolutely everyone—if you need an attorney who genuinely cares and gets results, Charles is the one to call!

This firm is fleecing people who have loved ones in assisted living that are unable to qualify for medicaid by telling them for $15K+ that they can get them qualified by various means (that is another issue and why we stopped the process). When it doesn't work out (because we were not willing to participate in their scheme) Barnes and Thornburg over charged per their original quote and curiously were willing to settle for a lesser fee...upon retrospect my asking reduction in their fee was not large enough as I did the majority of the work in providing them all of the data and not much 'work was done on their part' they still charged my family for no results because we refused to participate once the entire process/ scheme was revealed.

I recommend Charles Backs and his paralegal Jennifer for asset preservation. Jennifer caught many mistakes by our broker, which would’ve hurt us in the end. She’s top-notch and gets a lot done in a short period of time. If you were afraid of getting an attorney for asset preservation, don’t worry I speak from experience that it has been very profitable to have them on my side.

Charles Backs is very helpful and easy to work with.

Their service is good but they are EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE
