Client Testimonials

“My family has been working with Attorney Mark Heffner and paralegal Jackie for the last eight years.They are intelligent, knowledgeable and willingly to take the time to clearly explain the process until you are comfortable with it.

- Bob B., New London, New Hampshire

When I came to see Attorney Mark Heffner the last time my husband was very ill. After meeting with Attorney Heffner, I felt as if the weight of the world on my shoulders was lifted. I was afraid of losing my home and all of our assets. After meeting with Attorney Heffner, I no longer had that weight. I felt free. I felt like I met a man who was interested in what I was saying, what my concerns were and reassured me that any time I could contact him and he would help. I have recommended Attorney Heffner to various people. Today I feel like I am coming to meet an old friend and it is such a good feeling.

- Barbara, Harrisville, Rhode Island

Just a quick but heartfelt note of thanks for the wonderful work you and your staff did, and continue to do, for my Dad and Mom in arranging their affairs and filing my Dad’s Medicaid application. I had never had occasion to retain an attorney for any reason until now. You and your staff put me at ease from our very first meeting, and handled my Dad and Mom’s affairs with not only professionalism but, just as important, with compassion.

- Tom, Plymouth, Massachusetts

I would like to thank Mark for his excellent work in guiding us through the preparation of legal documents allowing us to deal with healthcare and financial matters of our aging parents and to preserve their assets.

When our mom approached the end of her life Mark and his team were able to guide us through the process of qualifying her for Medicaid.

The thing that impressed us most was the depth of subject matter expertise that Mark and his team brought to the table and their ability to communicate that knowledge to us and to our 89 year old father.

- Bob, Coventry, Rhode Island

Estate planning and elder care present significant challenges, blending the financial resources of a lifetime with complex individual emotions in a potentially combustible mix. Fortunately for my family, Mark Heffner, Bill Jamieson and the rest of their team provided intelligent and caring legal guidance to help us honor our parents’ wishes fairly and equitably. Over time, during my parents’ healthy last years and through their later care and passing, as we navigated the sometimes rough passages, our relationship with Mark and his team developed into a warm and good-humored connection we continue to value and cherish.

- Rick, Warren, Rhode Island

Mark and his staff were a beacon of light in a very, very difficult and highly emotional time. In simple terms, if you have a question regarding elder care — this is the law firm to go to. I peppered them with questions and they patiently answered each question in a timely and efficient manner.  Empathy, class, integrity and intellect — Mark and his staff were invaluable. I was particularly touched by the care and concern Mark and Jackie showed my family. To make it crystal clear — it was my experience that they will do everything they can to produce the best result for their clients.

- Pat, Rhode Island

I just wanted to thank you, Jackie and your staff for the absolutely wonderful job you did with regard to my mother. My father and I were at a loss of what to do after she went into a nursing home and, unfortunately, it seemed that every other lawyer we met with made the whole procedure more confusing.

After our first meeting with you and Jackie, it was like a bright light at the end of the tunnel! You handled everything so professionally and with such compassion during that time.

I could go on and on – but I just want you to know how much everything was appreciated. You truly are the best!

- Jan, Westerly, Rhode Island
