In the Trenches

"In the trenches" describes the day-to-day activities, successes and challenges of our practice. The title is inspired by the April 20, 2010 Omaha World Herald article by reporter Erin Grace, about our staff attorney Pat Ford.

September 1: According to Margaret Schaefer, Elder AccessLine Attorney, “The ElderAccessLine helped a caller who was being harassed by a collection agency.  The caller sent the collection agency a “do not contact” letter as directed by the ElderAccessLine Attorney, and within a week the phone stopped ringing.  The caller was happy to have peace and quiet.

August 30: According to AccessLine™ Attorney Kim Dunovan, “A client called the Accessline after being notified by Nebraska Child Support Enforcement that they were holding child support owed to his mother, who died over ten years ago. Client’s father was the source of the child support payments. I obtained a court order to authorize Child Support Enforcement to disburse the child support funds to our client. Today a check was issued to our client for just over $1900.
