Here’s To The Original Caregiver – Mom And All Those Who Mother

happy mother's day from the estate and asset protection law firm

Mother’s Day is one of those days that always fills me with great joy and gratitude for not just my mother, or for being a mom myself, but for every person, man or woman, who takes mothering to heart. The men and women who care for our elderly parents while we are working. The men and women who help us raise our children while we pursue careers. Mothering is caregiving. And you do not have to have given birth to a child to know how to mother.

I recently came across a comment the comedienne Amy Poehler made about the indispensable role of caregivers at an event she attended on Mother’s Day:

“I have thought very hard and long about what has influenced me over the past couple of years, and … it was the women who helped me take care of my children … who come to my house and help me raise my children. And for you working women who are out there tonight who get to do what you get to do because there are wonderful people who help you at home, I would like to take a moment to thank those people, some of whom are watching their children right now, while you’re at this event. Those are people who love your children as much as you do, and who inspire them and influence them and on behalf of every sister and mother and person who stands in your kitchen and helps you love your child, I say thank you and I celebrate you tonight.”

Most of us are not nearly as privileged as Ms. Poehler, which makes us even more thankful for the many caregivers in our lives. We all know how to mother each other. And, of course, those mothers who actually provide the passage for new life onto the planet deserve special recognition for the jobs they do of raising children to the very best of their abilities. Thank you, mom. Thank you to all of the caregivers who tend to the elderly and those with Alzheimer’s disease who work lovingly tending to life’s ever-unfolding needs.

Shannon provided invaluable information regarding a family estate matter. Although her firm did not quite fit our immediate needs, the consultation was informative and extremely HELPFUL! Shannon clearly explained what our next steps should be and offered to assist if we had any questions along the way. Her expertise and willingness to help puts her in a league of her own!

My husband has dementia. This firm has been patient, kind and professional while we went through a move from a house of 37 years in to a condo to be closer to my daughter and her husband. (Miami to Atlanta). There was also a wedding. All in 6 months.We now have a trust, power of attorney. Wills for my daughter and her husband and more. All at a fair price. I could not recommend higher.

Shannon Pawley and her team are exceptional at helping families navigate tough situations. We began working with her upon finding out my father had Stage 4 kidney cancer. His decline was more rapid than expected.Attorney Pawley and her entire team expedited paperwork that allowed me to focus on my father’s care, make decisions that suddenly needed to be made for him medically and financially, and has allowed me the ability to focus more on grieving and less on legal matters upon his passing.It is obvious she is knowledgeable about the best ways to navigate estates to protect the assets for the owners and their loved ones. It is just as obvious that she is passionate and has true heart for what her clients go through.We will be using her for own estate needs, and I recommend her expertise to everybody I can.This service is worth every penny we paid as it has saved us more money and time than I could imagine.

Attorney Shannon Pawley and paralegal Alexis McCoy are legal professionals that my wife and I highly recommend. Their grasp of the Georgia law pertaining to Medicaid assistance and the interworking's of the State department is exceptional. Additionally, their client-attorney relationship skills are excellent. We wouldn't hesitate to use this law firm again should the need arise.
