Testimonials
Kabb Law Firm has played a critically important role in the lives of our family over the past 7 years.
When my wife, Cristina, was officially diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Rachel Kabb-Effron and her staff helped us quickly to re-document all of our vital documents: wills, powers of attorney, etc.. Rachel and the firm’s social worker, Carolyn Lechner, also assisted us in successfully processing our claim for long term care insurance, which can be (but, fortunately, was not thanks to their intervention) a traumatic experience, and procuring home health care assistance.
When Cristina moved to Arden Courts, a memory care facility in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, both Rachel and Carolyn visited her regularly, even during the Covid era, over the course of her 3 year stay. After Cristina’s passing in February 2022, Rachel and Carolyn expedited all of the paper work required for insurance claims and for processing necessary documentation to complete Probate. As of today, everything that needed to be done has been completed.
However, it is not just the firm’s professionalism and efficiency that stands out, more importantly, Rachel, Carolyn and all of the firm’s staff are warm, decentan very caring persons who understand, empathize with and cherish their clients (and their circumstances) who they treat as friends and family. I and my children, Olivia and Nicholas, feel proud to know and work with them as well as gratitude for their constant devotion to Cristina, my wife and the kids’ mother. They made a difficult part of our lives much easier to bare.

Rachel and her team helped my elderly mom and I sort out issues surrounding elder care and Medicaid law. Not only did Rachel and her team handle our matters efficiently and with great expertise, but they also made us feel comfortable and taken care of. We both felt that we were in good hands. Because of their superb service, my mom was able to live out the last years of her life with the highest quality of life, which is a true gift. I’m so thankful to Rachel and her team for making that possible.

Grant GoodmanAttorney
Rachel Kabb-Effron was a wonderful help to my father and me during my mother’s dementia. Rachel was instrumental in getting my mother on Medicaid, so we could place her in a wonderful facility. Rachel was very patient with my father, who was not always pleasant. She was great at keeping both my father and me informed every step of the process. Rachel also helped prepare a living will for my father, a power of attorney for my father, and she updated my parents’ will. Rachel is a kind, sensitive person, and is very knowledgeable about the ever-changing elder law issues.
AnnClient
One of the reasons I like to recommend my clients to Rachel is that she is incredibly knowledgeable in her field. She holds a specialty that few can claim, and is dedicated to her career, colleagues, and a course of continuous study. Rachel is compassionate and caring and delivers expertise with class, assertiveness, and efficiency. She is the type of person who continually strives to improve, and remaining teachable is what, I believe, makes her the right person for most or my clients.

David McGuffeyCertified Elder Law Attorney
I was referred to Kabb Law by a friend at a time when I was at my wits end trying to find care and coverage for my mother who suffers from dementia. I cannot speak highly enough about the service that we received from Rachel and her exquisite staff. Within three weeks, they had addressed our financial planning, Medicaid application, physical and mental evaluations and nursing home location for my mother. They listened to my concerns about having my mom nearby so my brother and I could visit regularly. My mother is in a safe and lovely location near my home and I have Rachel to thank for that. I simply don’t know what I would have done without Rachel and her team. I highly recommend them.

Miles HurleyCertified Elder Law Attorney
I contacted the Kabb Law firm to assist a relative with early onset Alzheimer’s disease. She was unable to work and needed to obtain medical coverage and disability. Although the process of obtaining disability can seem daunting, the Kabb Law firm team was able to simplify the process. I was relieved of the time consuming burden of figuring out what to do and how. I truly appreciate their support.
