As an associate at Henningson & Snoxell, Rachell Henning brings a wealth of personal and professional experience to her practice as an elder law attorney. From an early age, Rachell has been dedicated to assisting elderly individuals and individuals with disabilities to live their lives to the fullest.
Rachell managed a residential home for individuals with disabilities earlier in her career and was quickly promoted to be a service coordinator advocating for the people she served, working closely with their families and the staff to ensure the individuals she served were receiving proper services and living fulfilling lives. Rachell also has experience working with county financial workers, social workers, and others who handled eligibility decisions for the state run programs, including Medical Assistance.

Through her elder law concierge service, Rachell provides practical advise and assistance to elderly individuals and their families who are navigating the challenges of figuring out care and assistance to enable individuals to stay in their homes, how to pay for care, and when and how to make the transition into assisted living or other facilities.

In addition to handling the non-legal aspects of aging, Rachell also assists clients with Medicare and Medical Assistance applications and appeals.
