The Rutkowski Law firm was excellent! Their expertise in handling the Medicaid application process was excellent! Their assistance in the Probate Court process was also exceptional! Shout Out to Chris, Lea, Gail, Charlene, and Karen!

Chris and his team are awesome. After months of trying to get my father approved I finally contacted Rutkowski, and Gail the representative that assisted me took the reins and help finally get the approval for my father. Thank you so much.
