Americans are living longer than ever before.
As a result, we face more challenges and transitions in our lives.
One of the most difficult transitions people face is the change from independent living in their own home to living in a long term care residence or "nursing home".

TESTIMONIAL
When my county Board of Social Services denied my Medicaid application after waiting months for a decision, my daughter was referred to Fred Niemann (with offices in Monmouth County and Bergen County, NJ). He fully explained our options and immediately filed a fair hearing appeal. His assistants re-filed the Medicaid application and he and his staff aggressively and professionally prepared the legal papers needed for the appeal. The matter was successfully resolved, bringing us peace of mind after many months.
I am so appreciative of Mr. Niemann and his caring staff for doing a difficult job I could not handle myself.

New Jersey has participated in the federal Medicaid program since 1970. Today, New Jersey Medicaid is the largest social services program in state government. It provides for the healthcare needs of more than 1,000,000 people.
Fredrick P. Niemann got a first-hand look at the problems of the elderly many years ago with the aging of his beloved grandparents.
"When my grandmother developed dementia, my parents would try to get answers to questions about things like Medicare, benefits, insurance, Medicaid,” he said. "We would get little snippets of information, a few answers, but no one seemed to be able to put it all together. I thought there was a crying need for someone to do it right.”
This experience moved Mr. Niemann years later to become more involved in elder law and life care planning for the elderly. Today, his law firm in Freehold and Lyndhurst, New Jersey focuses on issues affecting seniors such as elder law, Medicaid, Medicare, guardianship, estate planning, and how to find and pay for a long-term residence including assisted living, nursing home and independent care.
The firm has especially focused in on a growing need – people 80 and older who make up the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population.

TESTIMONIAL
"Early Dementia, Alzheimer’s. My Mom’s health deteriorated to the point she required full-time care. She wanted to live at home, but required regular help with the essentials of daily living (i.e. dressing, bathing, etc.). As her caregiver daughter, the responsibilities fell on me to figure out what to do. Thank goodness for Fredrick Niemann.
He met with me and explained all of my options for my mom, from at home/community care, assisted living, state, county and local programs for the elderly, financial eligibility for benefits, Medicaid qualification, pharmaceutical assistance, utility aid, Medicare and Veteran’s benefits, etc. While I felt overwhelmed by it all, Mr. Niemann clearly was in control of what could be done for Mom. We engaged him to make applications for subsidized at-home care and assistance through available grant programs and as part of his services to us, he is counseling us on a reverse mortgage, income and financial products to enhance Mom’s monthly income and to reduce her expenses. Mom would tell me to let Mr. Niemann make all the decisions although I am her Power of Attorney. I value so much his confident and generally caring manner. If you’re trying to help your Mom, Dad or family member deal with a life changing health condition, call Mr. Niemann. I’m glad I did and so is Mom. Mary Layton, Farmingdale, NJ"

"The special needs of these older clients are significant and highly complex,” said Niemann. "If you’re going to help service these special and vulnerable people you counsel, you must have a substantive grasp of the law, including rules related to Medicare/Medicaid and other government benefits.
It also takes a sensitivity of how to deal with people on an emotional level.” With many of his elderly clients confused by the intricacies of Medicare and Medicaid, their grown children also may feel frustrated.
Call our office today. Ask for Mr. Niemann to personally discuss your NJ Medicaid situation at 800-888-7442 or e-mail him at fniemann@hnlawfirm.com. Also click on New Jersey Elder Law Center.

TESTIMONIALS
Mr. Niemann has been a god send to me and my family. He has met with me many, many times with patience, sensitivity and understanding that few people expect from an attorney. My family issues are complex and Mr. Niemann understands what I want to happen to my estate upon my death especially for my adult incapacitated child and other adult children. He created a special trust for my son. He has followed up with me to help me make decisions without forcing his opinions on me. In the end, he told me, ”Jerri, my job is to explain your choices and help you understand the legal effect of those choices". He guides me and puts me at ease. He wants you to make decisions that are the right ones for you.

I join in every word my Mom described about Mr. Niemann. She just raves about him and when she leaves his office she is calm and totally confident in his counsel, wisdom and advice. Our family is blessed with him being my Mom's protector and confidant.
