Your host, Audrey Ehrhardt, talks with the Partner of Polur Elder Law, Shari Polur. At the heart of Shari's practice is a holistic approach to elder law. She believes that providing clients with "nice hard gritty documents and nice folders" is simply not enough. To truly serve her clients, she delves deep into their lives, understanding their family relationships, medical issues, living situations, and financial capabilities. This comprehensive understanding begins with a 19-page questionnaire, ensuring that by the time she meets with her clients, she has a clear picture of their legal questions and overall life circumstances.
Shari's method is unconventional, starting with such a level of detail, and it can be intimidating for new clients. However, she emphasizes the importance of tailored advice over generic solutions. She compares the need for specialized legal counsel to the necessity of seeing a geriatrician for age-specific health conditions rather than a general practitioner or a pediatrician. Her goal is to make her clients understand why it's crucial to consider their entire lives, not just their legal documents when planning for the future.
