Estate Planning and Elder Law Attorney
Thank you for visiting Olivia K. Smith, Attorney at Law. Olivia maintains her own practice and is a partner at Cornetet, Meyer, Rush, and Stapleton, LPA. Olivia was admitted to practice in Ohio in 2007 and Kentucky in 2022.
You are most likely here because you are amidst turmoil in your life, such as considering placing your loved one in a nursing home. You may also be here to start the process of establishing an estate plan to protect you and your family from potential life challenges. Either way, we are happy you are here to take the first step. Our number one goal is to help you solve your problem or concern and help you move to the next phase in your life with dignity and peace of mind. Secondly, we want this process to be as painless as possible for you.
In addition to the above practice areas, Olivia has extensive experience with domestic relations cases, including marriage termination and child custody. Divorce and other family conflicts can greatly impact your planning decisions. Olivia has now stepped away from actively practicing in domestic relations but will always leverage her experience to inform her clients of the right steps to take. Olivia has developed patience and listening skills through years of experience with conflict and litigation that she aims to transfer to her current areas of practice. Olivia wants you to feel comfortable and never intimidated when meeting with her.
