Landsman Law Group -- Estates, Trusts, Elder Law

“A law firm with heart, humor and brains”

We are an Elder Law and Disability Law firm that solves Medicaid Planning and Estate Planning problems for our clients in a narrow range of areas.

We see ourselves as a firm with heart, humor and brains.

We care about our clients and the work we do for them, but do not let ourselves lose the distance we need to be good advisors and advocates in assisting them in the tough life decisions and actions they must take.

Caring about clients is not enough. We know we need intelligence, knowledge and experience to convert that care into good results. Add to that decades of experience so that we are able to pick the right path and pursue it vigorously.

We know from experience that even in the worst of times there is reason – indeed, the need – to laugh. Life is too short and too hard not to laugh with our clients and at ourselves from time to time.

Elder law, which is our main area of practice, covers a broad array of issues that affect the aging population. Among them are: estate planning; Medicaid; guardianship & conservatorship; and various other issues relating to the older adult.

We are located in Rockville, Maryland, but work with clients throughout Montgomery and Prince George’s County as well as other areas in Maryland. And we work with clients in Washington, D.C. as well.

Testimonials

"We were directed to the law firm of Ron M. Landsman, P.A. and specifically to May-Lis Manley by the Maryland Disability Law Center. The firm represented us in appealing the Maryland Medical Assistance REM program’s termination of nursing services for our adult disabled son. Ms. Manley was thorough and thoughtful in all the encounters and meetings that we had with her. Ms. Manley’s thorough preparation of our case, including assembling an incredible defense of medical professionals who were prepared to testify in our son’s behalf, and knowledge of the law enabled us to prevail. We would not have succeeded without their counsel and are pleased that their conscientious efforts resulted in our son continuing to receive overnight nursing care."

~ Karen C., Rockville, MD

"Ron Landsman came very highly recommended to me. At our first meeting or two, he laid out what our plan should be to accomplish our needs. Ron was right on and our goals were met with minimum complications. He and his staff were always responsive and reliable.

We thank them for their professionalism and courtesy."

~ Peter B., Washington, DC

"My wife and I just wanted to thank the fine staff at Ron Landsman's office for your gracious help with our estate planning. We wanted to thank you for your patient guidance through a complicated process. We also wanted to express our gratitude for quickly answering our questions and asking us the right questions at the right times. We really appreciated being allowed to consider multiple pathways to reach our goals and being given the time to weigh those options without feeling pressured."

~ Jeffry, J., Silver Spring, MD

"Working with Ron Landsman and his legal team was a pleasure. They walked me through the process, step by step, and were patient, and reassuring when I had concerns. They helped me to be realistic about outcomes, and provided me with detailed information to make the best possible decisions. I am very grateful to Mr. Landsman and his team."

~ Andrea H., Rockville, MD

"Dear Ron,

I’m grateful for your knowledge about issues concerning long-term care insurance and planning for the later stages of life. When I listened to you mapping out different scenarios and the accompanying changes in living arrangements as I get older, as well as possible changes in the allocation of money, so that myself and my family are provided for in the best possible way, I felt for the first time that I had control of this whole area of uncertainty with intelligent options. Your colleague, Kim, was helpful in walking me through the different papers and making sure that I understood them and her editorial suggestions were brilliant. Your staff of Sara, Vijaya and Sanja were the best I have seen in an office where the work can be challenging at times."

~ Norma B., Chevy Chase, MD

"Ron M. Landsman, P.A. provided us with an extraordinary level of expertise in the Special Needs Trust area, and a warm personal touch."

~ Gary H., Washington, DC

"It is difficult to imagine trying to navigate the complex Medicaid application process, especially in light of my mother’s Alzheimer’s, without the excellent guidance and knowledge provided by Ron Landsman and his staff. Mr. Landsman’s paralegal, Thomas Hennrikus, provided hands-on legal advice and document preparation assistance that made the nine month Medicaid application process successful. Subsequent annual applications were also greatly expedited through the expert guidance of Mr. Landsman’s staff. In the future, we plan to engage Mr. Landsman for all of our eldercare legal issues."

~ Arnold F. Olney, MD

"I began using the office of Ron Landsman after the sudden death of my husband. We had been discussing the need for a new and updated will, but as so often happens had not proceeded in this matter. Having three adult children in different stages of their own lives, and not having had a discussion with my husband as how to change the very old will which he had left me practically emotionally paralyzed as to how to proceed. I had many questions - the "if-then" type. Both Ron Landsman and Kimberly Kasberg were patient beyond expectation in explaining the possibilities and consequences of the many options I considered. They were a sensitive and reassuring influence when dealing with my many phone calls and were both kind and extremely helpful in answering my questions."

~ Beth F., Silver Spring, MD

"In life we collect memories, and I have kind thoughts of Attorney Landsman as a person and the great job he did for me. AS YOU KNOW, WE WON!!"

~ Irene K., Washington, DC

"My daughter's physician said that qualifying her for SSI "would not be successful, at least not the first attempt." Her DC attorney referred her to Ron M. Landsman. Ron got her qualified his first attempt. [When] SSI bureaucrats tried to reduce or even deny her benefits, Ron Landsman had them restored."
