P. Mark Accettura
P. Mark Accettura was quoted in the July/August 2018 issue of the AARP Bulletin in an article by Jane Bryant Quinn titled “Juggling Estate Decisions: With a stepfamily, try not to split heirs.” Ms. Quinn also referenced Mark’s book Blood and Money, causing a spike in book sales.
Sam Hurwitz
Sam attended the annual fall Elder Law and Disability Rights Section conference on Mackinac Island from October17th through the 19th. Conferences like these, and our membership in the Elder Law Section of the State Bar of Michigan, help us stay abreast of changes in this very fluid area of the law.

Carolyn is a licensed social worker and geriatric care manager.
