We are professionally and personally committed to advocating for the rights of individuals with disabilities, their families and seniors. Many of our partners and associates are themselves sibling or parents of someone with a disability. Our personal connections to disability and disability law, help us recognize that each client comes to us with a unique set of circumstances and needs. We take the time to understand each client’s individualized needs and customize our legal advice, planning and representation to meet those needs. We are committed to educating the community about the rights of children and adults with disabilities, and the benefits and programs available to individuals and their families. Each year, we provide hundreds of community educational seminars to groups and organizations at no cost.

Often, in families in which there is a child with developmental disabilities, much of the focus is on the disabled child, with an assumption that siblings will step in when parents cannot continue to provide care. That is not always the case. Join S. Paul Prior on Wednesday, September 30th, at 7:00 pm for a webinar discussing how to have a conversation with siblings to assess willingness to assume responsibilities, as well as strategies and tips for incorporating brothers and sisters who are able to do so, into planning for the future. The presentation will review transfer of guardianship rights, estate administration, trust administration, the role of the representative payee, and general advocacy. These issues are especially important when families have been self-directing care and service. This 60-minute presentation, appropriate for parents and adult siblings, includes a Q&A for attendees.
