Follow on Google News | Local Attorney Takes Dedication To Helping Seniors To A Higher LevelFurther knowledge enhances team of experts at Elder Law Firm of Andrew Olsen
“Parts of the practice of Elder Law involve subtle nuances about which thought must be given. For example, prior to sitting down to talk to a client I will ask the client what side of the table I should sit on so that he or she may hear me better. I position lighting so that glare is reduced, and make documents that are easier to read. It’s about being sensitive to a client’s needs and making them as comfortable as possible.” said Levy. Attorney Levy’s focus on elder rights extends beyond the clients she represents into the development of the public policies affecting seniors’ quality of life. By serving on the Board of Commissioners for The Wilmington Housing Authority, she hopes to contribute her understanding of the specific issues affecting older adults to advance the affordable housing options available to them.
