Kevin Horner has a wealth of estate planning, elder law, and estate administration experience, having practiced in these areas for about fifteen years.
Kevin works closely with clients to craft estate plans which address concerns such as probate avoidance, tax planning, asset protection, and elder law planning. Kevin understands that the key is to tailor the estate plan to the client’s specific goals. During his years of practice, Kevin has seen what happens when families do not plan ahead and are burdened with overwhelming expenses for a loved one’s medical care, or struggling through the probate process. Kevin’s broad experience also enables him to advise a client with regard to Medicaid and access to long-term care and nursing home benefits.
