Good Morning…

A happy, happy spring to you! We hope you’re enjoying the warmer weather and lack of snow as much as us.

The numbers are in from the Brain Ball held back in March. 300 people attended and $145,000 was raised! Due to the success of the event, a 2016 Brain Ball is in the works. Congrats to Sharon, Al, and all the other volunteers at the Alzheimer's Association CT Chapter on creating such a successful event.

We’re already starting to book Fall events for the attorneys at the firm. If you’re part of a support group or parent group and would like us to attend a session to talk about special needs planning, let us know. We’d be happy to come out and talk. Contact Kevin at kevin@ctseniorlaw if you are interested.

From all of us to all of you – have a great day.
