Best Advocacy & Civil Legal Representation Services in Brooklyn, NY

A Medicaid Fair Hearing gives you the opportunity to appeal a decision that denied you coverage. You can show that your application cannot be completed properly, or you may explain that the caseworker did not transcribe information from your application correctly. The state Medicaid agency may have found disqualifying transfers on your bank statements, or you may not have sent all the additional information the caseworker needed. We will send one of our attorneys to your hearing, and we will represent you before the administrative law judge. These hearings are successful only if you provide us with the denial letter and remain truthful during the investigation.
