"It's not enough for a great nation to have added new years to life. Our objective must be to add new life to years."
- John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Thirty-fifth President of the United States
Julieanne is the founding shareholder of Steinbacher, Goodall & Yurchak, an elder care and special needs law firm established in 2002. The firm boasts 6 elder law attorneys. Julieanne is a Certified Elder Law Attorney (CELA) through the National Elder Law Foundation. She is also listed as a Super Lawyers Rising Star. A significant portion of her elder law practice focuses on estate and long-term care planning. As an attorney, her goal is to provide a bridge between legal services and the aging network.
As a gerontologist and former social worker at a local nursing facility, she has seen the devastating effect not planning for potential long-term care needs can have on an individual and their whole family. With the average cost of nursing home care at over $105,000 per year, many people come to her feeling hopeless about paying for their long-term care needs.
She has extensive lecturing experience as a speaker for The Pennsylvania State University, Tax Institutes and Tax Week, PICPA- Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants, National Association of Tax Practitioners- PA Chapter, Pennsylvania Society of Public Accountants, Pennsylvania Bar Institute, Elder Law Institute, Pennsylvania Bar Association, Back to Basics, Tax Pro Seminars, and the University of Illinois. In addition, she has conducted numerous local and national seminars for various organizations.
Julieanne is the President of Estate & Long-Term Care Planning, Inc., a company which provides continuing education for the public and professionals in Pennsylvania and coaching for attorneys throughout the nation. She has written materials in various newsletters and newspapers. Julieanne authored two books about trusts, Pennsylvania Trust Guide (Edition I and II) and the Pennsylvania Special Needs Planning Guide, both published by George T. Bisel Company, Inc. Most recently, Julieanne joined nine other leading elder law attorneys from across the nation, and they co-authored Protect Your Family! Don't Write a Blank Check to the Nursing Home. This book, a collaborative writing, breaks down in layman's terms, and offers readers the essential tools and knowledge for effective long-term care planning. She is also a co-author of Protect Your Family! What You Really Need to Know for the Second Half of Life, released in the fall of 2015.
Julieanne resides in Jersey Shore with her husband, Donald, her three children, Cortney, Stephanie, and D.J., and their two dogs, Steiny and Fluffy.
