Laura will get it done. Take notes because everything she says will unfold exactly how she says it will. It was a complicated (ALW then Zero Share plus backdate appeal) process that was completely new to me and I was out of the country and when back was in a different state from my father for the duration. She was very very good and I highly recommend her!

I am so glad that Atty Laura Butkute, with Elder Care Law, was referred to us. When the family initially tried to help my mom apply for Medi-Cal, on our own, it was overwhelming for us with all these new information and requirements. During the initial consultation with Atty Laura, she addressed our questions, issues, and concerns. Atty Laura also explained the process and what she will do for my mom’s situation and what is needed to ensure a successful application submittal the first time through. With the help of Atty Laura and his associate, Weylon Shineman, there was focus and priority placed on the necessary activities and documents needed to get timely approval. My family and I highly recommend Atty Laura, and her associates at Elder Care Law.

Elder Care Law is a top notch firm for helping my mom in her application for Medi-cal. It is not easy to apply Medi-cal at her age. However, the Laura and her team at Elder Care law were very thorough with their work and Weylon guided me thru the process and step by step to achieved our goal. I would highly recommend their team!

My family and I have had a rough few years trying to pay for my mother’s care, including being denied for medi-cal and then having to borrow against my parents’ home. By the time we found Laura, we were out of money to pay for my mom’s care and what felt like without options. Within a couple of months, Laura and her team got my mom approved for medi-cal. What a relief! She and her team are efficient, transparent, reasonably priced, and advocated for us when the county was being difficult. Our only regret is not finding Laura years earlier. We HIGHLY recommend!

I want to express my thanks to this firm they were so professional and caring toward my husbands needs and I highly recommend these firm especially Laura Butkute thanks a million for your support and services his bless you and your team

Laura B helped our family so much during a very difficult time. Seeking benefits for our loved one, and having to cut through the red tape and required documentation, seemed absolutely overwhelming. What we needed to do, and what we needed to present to obtain approval, was clearly presented to us. This allowed us to move forward under her guidance. I would also include Weylon in this review. He always kept on top of what we were submitting so we could get approval. I can’t even imagine taking this whole process on by ourselves. We have already recommended Laura and her team to others.

Thank you to Laura, Weylon, and the entire team for assisting with all the documents required for filing for Medi-Cal. They were helpful, professional, understanding, and patient through the whole process. I would highly recommend anyone who needs help to contact them. They are extremely knowledgeable and helped us get the assistance we badly needed.

Perhaps, as with MANY out there I never ever thought 'we' would ever have to be in the position to apply for MEDI-CAL assistance, but unfortunately, 'life' can throw you 'curve balls' that leaves you with NO CHOICE in the matter...I have to say Elder Care Law, Laura, Weylon and their team of EXPERTS made this process a lot more UNCOMPLICATED than I ever thought it would be. They are the 'real deal' and know what they are doing. If you or family members find themselves in the position where they TRULY need "assistance' that MEDI-CAL provides, I recommend this group 500%...BTW, they were always available whenever I needed questions answered etc etc.. Many THANKS to this group and their team.

Calm and professional. During a very stressful time Laura guided me through the process on qualifying my husband for Medi-Cal after he suffered a severe stroke. She also helped me setting up a trust necessitated by these changes in my life. Many thanks to Laura and Elder Care Law.

I 100% recommend Elder Care Law. I was very worried about getting my mother on Medi-Cal as there are so many hoops to jump through. Laura was great and helped me out not only legally but made feel better about the process. Weylon worked to get the paperwork needed and was wonderful to deal”with and very detailed and helpful. They got her approved and in a very timely manner. Great firm !

I recently used the services of Elder Law Care and was completely satisfied. They were very professional and knowledgeable regarding my situation. Everything went smoothly and on time. If they ever couldn't answer immediately, they always got back to me promptly. I would highly recommend them.

It is with pleasure and deep appreciation that we thank Laura Butkute and her executive director, Weylon Shineman, for all their expertise and insight in successfully navigating the tortuous ins and outs of moving our mother into the Medi-Cal program; this at a time when our lives were in turmoil from all the circumstances surrounding our mother’s accident. During this undertaking, they were always available to answer our many questions and concerns with patience and care, counseling us on financial matters, as well as advising us as to the progress of the process. It was a great relief to know that their experience in these matters was taking this complex task out of our hands. We recommend Elder Care Law California enthusiastically and without reservation.
