My journey into elder law began in the 1990s when my wife’s grandfather suffered a fall. As the family’s attorney, I faced the overwhelming task of navigating nursing home care, affordability, and quality. Despite my legal background, finding clear answers to these common concerns was difficult. This experience fueled my determination to find better solutions.
