Your host, Audrey Ehrhardt, talks with the Elder Law and Special Needs Attorney of The Koewler Law Firm, James Koewler. Jim's firm stands out as a beacon of support for those facing the challenges of long-term care, particularly individuals with chronic illnesses. Their mission is to prevent or delay the need for long-term care, a service that is becoming increasingly crucial as our population ages. They also provide invaluable assistance to people with special needs, ensuring they receive the necessary nursing care and support services. This support extends to the spouses who often carry the weight of caregiving responsibilities.
Jim shared a poignant story that led him to his current specialization. After a falling out with his previous law firm, where he practiced regulatory law, a family experience with his wife's grandfather, who had dementia, required long-term care. This personal encounter, coupled with significant changes in Medicaid and VA regulations, propelled Jim into the field of elder law and long-term care planning. It's a testament to how our personal lives can profoundly influence our professional paths.
