Military Veteran Attorney Blog

Often times we have clients that need assistance in Florida. The great snowbird migration of the upper midwest to sunshine states can affect clients living in multiple states. In Michigan it seems that most seniors and retires enjoy spending winters in Florida.

Although we do not practice law in Florida, we frequently refer to experts in different ares of Florida law. One such expert that I frequently defer to in the areas of Elder Law, Medicaid Planning, Veteran's Benefits, Probate, and, Estate Planning is Mark Lewis.

Mark is a highly skilled attorney working in the Tampa / St. Pete's area. He can be reached at:

6830 Central Ave., Suite D
St. Petersburg, Florida 33707
Tel No. 727-381-1946
Fax No. 727-384-4633

If you are a Michigan resident looking for help with Florida Law or are a Florida resident following this blog please feel free to contact Mark and let him know that you read this article.

Attached is a great article authored by Mark Lewis regarding recent changes to Florida law affecting power of attorney documents.
