Senior-Legal’s founding partner, Natalie Drinkard, has seen too many families go broke paying for long-term care. In nearly two decades of working with nursing homes and their patients, she has fought the beleaguered and complex government process of securing benefits for seniors—a process which can cause unnecessary frustration for families in their greatest time of need. Senior-Legal is the solution. Together, we will ensure that your family has the legal tools to protect your lifetime savings from long-term care costs, all while accessing government benefits available to help pay those expenses. Senior-Legal will remove the worry and frustration from the process, while embracing you with compassion and support.
