Abraham Mazloumi clearly knows “all things Medicaid.” Not only that, he addressed all of my questions with patience. I was very impressed by him!

James Nolan

I will start this review by saying FIVE stars are truly not enough for this small but impactful, knowledgeable and professional law firm. Abraham Mazloumi and I have many mutual clients and I’m happy to say I’ve never had a dissatisfied client. He views every client as if they are his own family. Abraham and his staff have the unique ability to analyze the situation and to come up with creative legal strategies that are within the law that have helped many of my elder clients remain in their home, have their assets protected all while receiving the long term care they need and desire. He is loyal and dedicated to his clients, always willing to answer the phone and speak to them directly, he is not a 9 to 5 law firm. Lastly, Abraham is a family man who makes time for everyone including his loving wife and children. I’ll be working with Abraham for many years to come!

We met Abraham and Evelyn a couple of years after Abraham helped our aunt with her will and preparations for elder life, and they truly stood out. Both of them took the time to explain everything clearly and thoughtfully. Evelyn guided us through all the paperwork with incredible care and attention to detail. She was warm, sharp, and always made herself available whenever we had questions. They collaborated with our aunt’s accountant to ensure everything was done perfectly. We were so impressed with their help that we returned to them for our own needs and have since recommended them to friends. They are thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely care about the people they work with.

We had an excellent experience working with Abraham Mazloumi for my parents’ complicated Medicaid planning & Medicaid application. From start to finish, he made the difficult process easy to understand. Abraham took the time to explain each step in detail and answered our questions with patience and clarity. We felt reassured throughout the entire process, thanks to Mr. Mazloumi’s professionalism. I highly recommend Abraham Mazloumi to anyone looking for a knowledgeable & compassionate elder law attorney.

Timothy Sheahan

I am an attorney that has worked in the Great Neck area for almost 25 years. I have had the good fortune and pleasure, to work closely with Abraham and his associates, on numerous matters over the years. Abraham and his staff are competent, courteous and professional, and they put the needs of their clients first. Abraham Mazloumi is the first name I think of when my clients ask me to refer someone for their trust, estate, wealth management and preservation, medicaid and any other comparable needs.

Nicole pourgol

I am very grateful to Mr. Abraham Mazloumi and his wonderful associate Evelyn Gitsin for all of their hard work on my grandmothers estate planning. They are extremely knowlegable on trusts and estates and work to ensure their clients understand every step of the process. Evelyn and Abraham make themselves available for clients at any hour and even make house calls. Evelyn handled my grandmas medicaid application in record time, we were very impressed. They are very efficient in what they do. I highly recommend this firm for all estate planning needs.

Richard Schwartz

My wife and I went to Abraham a few years ago for estate planning. We were impressed with his thoroughness as we created our plan including wills and trusts. He cares enough to stay in touch with us as circumstances change. Thanks Abraham!

Alaina Hannides

Where do I begin… I was referred to Evelyn by a friend of mine. It was THE BEST MOVE we ever made! I’m caregiver for both my folks, one with Parkinson’s and one with Alzheimer’s. My brother and I hired Evelyn and Mazloumi Law to put my parents house in a trust and get them on Medicaid. Now, I will be able to care for them thru the CDPAP program AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, they get to stay in their home with home care forever. And when it gets too hard for me, because we hired Mazloumi and got them on Medicaid, I will be able to have help come in 24/7. I cannot express how grateful we are for my friend who referred us and Evelyn at Mazloumi Law! They really changed our lives. If you can’t tell by now, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Medicaid planning for new yorkers

Qualify for Medicaid and keep your income

Comprehensive legal support for all your Medicaid and Estate Planning needs. We take care of everything in-house, from Medicaid Planning & legal strategy and preparing all legal documents, to obtaining Medicaid benefits.

Medicaid planning

We can help you plan strategically to qualify for Medicaid even if your income (or your assets/resources) are over Medicaid’s limits.


For example, one of the many options to consider are Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts (MAPT). We’ll discuss the various options available to you and take care of everything “in-house,” from developing a tailored plan to help you qualify for Medicaid to helping you obtain Medicaid benefits (including Home Health Care services.)

Community Medicaid Applications

There is currently no lookback period for Community Medicaid, allowing for greater flexibility in asset transfers. However, New York is expected to implement a 2.5-year (30-month) lookback period in 2025. This change means that any gifts or uncompensated asset transfers made within 2.5 years of your Medicaid application may impact your eligibility. We recommend you start planning with Abraham Mazloumi & Associates now.

Medicaid Applications for Home Care Services

We understand the complexities of obtaining home care services through Medicaid. Complete and accurate Мedicaid applications reduce the risk of delays or rejections. We streamline the entire Medicaid application process from start to finish, including assisting with obtaining home care services through Medicaid, ensuring that all paperwork requirements are met.

Nursing Home Medicaid Applications

Qualifying for Nursing Home Medicaid can be challenging due to the 5-year (60 months) lookback period. This means that any gifts or uncompensated asset transfers made within the last five years prior to your application may impact your eligibility. But the law provides many exceptions that (if applicable) we can use to your advantage. Our team navigates these complexities and guides you every step of the way to to qualify you for and to obtain Nursing Home Medicaid benefits.

Medicaid Applications for Health Insurance

If you are not eligible for Medicare or cannot afford private health insurance, Medicaid may be an option for you. Our experienced team guides you through the process of securing Medicaid health insurance.

Pooled Income Trusts

Medicaid counts most of your income тo determine if you qualify for Medicaid, including Social Security income, pension income, rental income, IRA distributions, and more. If your income (as a single or a married couple) exceeds Medicaid’s income limits, know that you may still qualify for Medicaid. Strategies such as the utilization of a Pooled Income Trust (PIT) can help. We assist you with establishing a pooled income trust, obtaining the required ‘disability determination’ from New York State, and submitting all documentation to Medicaid for approval.

Medicaid Recertifications

Medicaid eligibility must be reviewed annually and may change year to year. Even if you qualify for Medicaid now, this does not guarantee you will qualify in one year from now. We provide assistance with the Medicaid recertification process from start to finish.

START NOW

Why start Medicaid planning now?

Medicaid’s lookback periods penalize gifting and uncompensated transfers, potentially impacting your eligibility. Early planning helps you keep your income for living expenses and avoid costly private-pay healthcare.
