As his wife fell victim to online romance scammers who drained the family's trust and non-trust assets, a husband watched their life savings disappear.

Our client was a passenger in a stopped vehicle when it was rear-ended at significant speed, resulting in back, neck, hip, and head pain.

Protecting Benefits Eligibility Without Losing the Funds Set Aside for Care
After a traumatic brain injury left their adult son needing skilled nursing care, his parents transferred $400,000 into his name to secure his future—unknowingly disqualifying him from long-term care benefits.

Stepping In When No Powers of Attorney Were in Place
When her longtime boyfriend suffered a traumatic brain injury and heart attack with no Powers of Attorney in place, our client had no legal authority to make medical or financial decisions on his behalf.

Obtained ALTCS Benefits without Spend Down

Uncovering What Other Firms Overlooked
After a semi-truck sideswiped their vehicle on I-10, two sisters faced serious injuries and a $25,000 insurance cap. Three prior law firms made no progress. JacksonWhite uncovered an overlooked out-of-state policy and secured over $300,000 for each sister.
