Jason Neufeld
Personal Injury and Board-Certified Elder Law Attorney, Neufeld & Kleinberg, PA
When the people who need help most are injured or aging, the legal stakes go beyond a settlement check. Medicare liens, Medicaid eligibility, and long-term care can all hang in the balance. Jason Neufeld built his practice around exactly these clients, the injured and the elderly, the most vulnerable members of society. For Floridians facing a serious injury claim, he brings something most personal injury lawyers cannot, a command of how an injury settlement intersects with the benefits an injured or older client cannot afford to lose.
Practice Focus
Jason represents injured clients across Florida in car accidents, premises liability, negligent security, nursing home and assisted-living facility abuse, and wrongful death matters. He focuses particularly on cases where an injured client is elderly or disabled, advising on the Medicare and Medicaid issues that can quietly erode a recovery if a personal injury lawyer is not well-versed in them. He is Board Certified in Elder Law, a distinction held by only a small fraction of Florida attorneys, and he founded a separate firm, Elder Needs Law, PLLC, to handle Medicaid long-term-care planning, estate planning, incapacity planning, and probate.
Client Testimonial
“When it is a long shot, Jason Neufeld is your man. Jason Neufeld and the team at Elder Needs Law represented us in what first appeared to be an insurmountably daunting case. My octogenarian father who suffers from advanced-stage Parkinson’s Disease had repeated requests for Medicaid to increase hours. My family was exasperated, until we met Jason. His professional, prudent, and thorough approach, along with his patient tenacity, brought an outcome that exceeded my family’s expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Elder Needs Law for legal representation in elder law matters.”

Experience and Results
Jason has practiced law in Florida since his admission to The Florida Bar in 2007, giving him nearly two decades of experience serving injured and elderly clients. He practices alongside the trial lawyers of Neufeld & Kleinberg, PA, a boutique firm whose attorneys have won over $100 million in verdicts and settlements for injured clients and carry more than 100 combined years of personal injury experience. The firm’s record includes verdicts reported among the largest in Florida for their case types, among them a $50,128,000 jury verdict in a bad-faith insurance case and an auto-negligence verdict that was reported as a state record at the time.
Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome. The results of any case depend on its specific facts and legal circumstances. The verdicts noted above reflect the firm’s collective trial record.
