What Really Matters

A few weeks ago, we received the below online review on Google, for which we are very grateful. The review brought tears to our eyes as it described how our elder care law services helped this client and family. "Rothkoff law has truly been a pinnacle part of providing my mother with a much better life as she inches closer to the end of her rich and meaningful life. It's hard to express in words how important their role has been in all they have done. They have served my mother now for almost four years, and they have the [...]

Colombia Is Calling – Will We Answer?

Recently, Bryan Adler and I traveled to Colombia for a week-long trip as part of an elder law delegation from the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA), learning about the delivery of legal and social services to older adults in Colombia. Colombia is a fascinating, beautiful place. The people are warm and welcoming. Nursing homes generally do not exist. Virtually all take care of their loved ones at home. Walking multiple dogs at a time in Bogota seems to be a thing. I have no idea how the dogs are so well-behaved. There are still serious issues with the [...]

There Is Hope In The Face Of Unspeakable Evil

My last visit to Israel was in the Spring of 2018. I was traveling as part of a professional tour of aging services throughout Israel. Although the trip had many memorable experiences, a random encounter with a stranger at Ben Gurion Airport outside of Tel Aviv prior to my departure was the most memorable. As I was walking to my departure gate to return to Newark, NJ, after the 10-day trip, I noticed a middle-aged gentleman standing by a table with what appeared to be gift packages on display with a banner in Hebrew above the table and a picture [...]

A Journey Of Bonding: Father And Daughter’s Cross-Country Road Trip With Two Bulldogs

In July, my daughter, Liza, accepted an offer to begin a Ph.D. program in canine cognitive behavior at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Upon her acceptance, we began to immediately map out how she would get to Lubbock from Brooklyn and take her car. There was an important catch—she was going to Lubbock with two bulldogs. That meant it was difficult to fly due to the bulldogs' breathing issues. After much contemplation, it was agreed I would drive the 1,735 miles from Cherry Hill, New Jersey, to Lubbock, Texas, with my daughter and the bulldogs in tow. We set out on the evening [...]

A Closet Full of Shoes

Shoes keep us warm, dry, active, and sometimes fashionable. Shoes are important for walking and traveling, to see and experience the world around us. I have fond memories of shoe shopping with my mom. Searching for a popular new style of boots for fall and winter, strappy sandals for spring and summer, or the perfect pair of high-heeled shoes that match a formal dress for a special occasion. There were many times we would laugh in the shoe department when we turned to each other with a shoe in hand—"Do you like this one?"—and we were holding up the same [...]
