Danielle Ashby

Attorney, elder law and Medicaid planning

Danielle works with families planning a parent's long-term care, and with those who need a guardianship.

Danielle leads the firm's elder law work: Medicaid planning, long-term care applications, and guardianship and conservatorship petitions. Her first meetings are usually with two or three adult children at once, from different cities, on one video call.

She writes every family a plain-English plan before any application is filed.

Working with Danielle

Before law school Danielle worked as an admissions coordinator at a care home, where she saw families learn the Medicaid rules too late. She joined the firm in 2020.

She speaks French with her family and with clients who prefer it.
