About Marna E Solarsh

Marna E Solarsh practices at 670 White Plains Road in Scarsdale, a location that puts her within easy reach of clients across Westchester County, including White Plains, Yonkers, and surrounding communities. Her practice sits at the intersection of disability law, elder law, and estate planning, which allows her to take a comprehensive view of a client's legal and financial situation rather than addressing only one piece of the puzzle. For individuals dealing with a disabling condition, the legal challenges rarely stop at filing a disability claim. Questions about protecting assets, planning for long-term care, and ensuring that benefits are preserved often arise at the same time. Solarsh's combined background in these areas means clients can address multiple concerns with a single attorney who understands how these issues connect.

How They Can Help

Solarsh assists clients with the full range of disability-related legal work, from preparing initial SSDI and SSI applications to representing claimants at administrative hearings when a claim has been denied. Her elder law practice addresses guardianship, Medicaid planning, and the legal arrangements families need when a loved one can no longer manage their own affairs. On the estate planning side, she helps clients draft wills, establish trusts, and put documents in place that reflect their wishes and protect their beneficiaries.

What to Expect

Prospective clients can reach the office at (914) 725-7070 to schedule a consultation. During that initial meeting, Solarsh typically reviews the client's situation across all relevant areas, since a disability claim may have direct implications for estate planning or Medicaid eligibility. From there, she outlines a realistic picture of the process, the likely timeline, and what documents or medical records will be needed to move forward.

Service Area

The firm primarily serves clients in Scarsdale, White Plains, Yonkers, and throughout Westchester County, New York.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Marna E Solarsh handle both SSDI and SSI claims?
Yes. The firm works with clients on both Social Security Disability Insurance claims, which are based on work history, and Supplemental Security Income claims, which are need-based. The application and appeals process for each has different requirements, and the firm can help determine which program applies to your situation.
Why would a disability attorney also practice elder law and estate planning?
These areas overlap more than many people realize. A person receiving SSDI or SSI often needs to plan carefully around asset limits and Medicaid rules, and estate documents like powers of attorney become critical when someone is dealing with a serious illness or disability. Having one attorney who understands all three areas can simplify the process considerably.
What should I bring to my first consultation?
It helps to bring any correspondence you have received from the Social Security Administration, medical records or a list of your treating physicians, and any existing estate documents such as a will or power of attorney. The more context you can provide, the more useful the initial meeting will be.
Can the firm help if my disability claim has already been denied?
Yes. Many disability claims are denied at the initial application stage, and the appeals process includes several levels, including a hearing before an administrative law judge. The firm can step in at various points in that process, even if the original application was filed without an attorney.
Is the office accessible from other parts of Westchester County?
The office is located at 670 White Plains Road in Scarsdale, which is accessible from throughout Westchester County. Clients from White Plains, Yonkers, New Rochelle, and nearby communities regularly use the firm's services.
Does the firm assist with Medicaid planning alongside disability claims?
Yes. Because Solarsh practices elder law as well as disability law, she can help clients understand how receiving disability benefits may affect Medicaid eligibility and work through planning strategies that protect both income and assets.
