Posted by Kelly | December 13, 2012 | Insurance

Compassionate care you can count on.

In 2005 my husband suffered an accident that left him a quadriplegic. As I struggled to muddle through the legal ramifications of getting Medicaid assistance, filing for Social Security disability, and fighting insurance denials, Janet provided me with compassionate legal support. She provided me wit...h resources to cut through red tape and get connect with people who could help me. When I was turned down for assistance with home modifications to bring my husband home, she communicated with the parties involved and I was able to get what I needed. When my husband passed away, she contacted me to offer her condolences AND her services for setting my affairs. I have referred several friends who have experienced road blocks getting the care they need for their loved ones, and they have all said the same thing: Janet is compassionate, competent, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her.
