Elder Law CLE - South Carolina Appleseed

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND THIS SEMINAR?
We hope to see you this year at SC Appleseed’s Elder
Law Seminar. We have selected a great group of
speakers on a variety of topics!
Kicking things off will be Kenny Dojaquez, discussing
VA disability issues, a common problem in elderly
clients. Then we hear from Jennifer Rainville, who
will share with us some of the hot topics that came
up during her time at the probate court, especially
those that are important to her elderly clients now.
Barbara Brunson will give us some ideas of how to
really make sure both you and your elderly client
have a complete picture of their situation before
deciding what help they need.
After lunch we will get a primer on Guardian and
Conservatorship issues from Sarah St. Onge, Chair
of the SC Bar’s Elder law committee. Then Patricia
Harrison will catch us up on the most recent news
from the Medicaid front, including issues specific to
those with disabilities. Finally, wrapping things up for
us will be Franchelle Millender to fill us in on ethics
issues commonly faced by lawyers representing
elderly clients. We hope you can join us!
If you have questions or would like further
information, please contact Pat Saad of the SC
Appleseed Legal Justice Center at 803-779-1113
ext. 100.
