The Law Office of Emma Hemness PA was founded in 1998 by Emma Hemness, who was joined by her husband, Attorney Gerald Hemness, in 2003.  Together this husband and wife team offers a full range of elder law and estate planning legal services and counsel necessary to protect, direct and compassionately guide seniors, the disabled, and their family members along life’s journey.  Their goal is to be a “lifeline” before any functional impairment arises, all the way beyond a client’s demise.   Obtaining government financial assistance to defray the cost of long term care and protecting a senior who has become mentally diminished are focal points within their extensive experience.  Emma is a highly regarded attorney having received a number of awards and earning recognition as an expert throughout Florida as well as the nation.  Gerald is a well-known advocate for seniors and the developmentally disabled suffering from diminished capacity where guardianship is necessary for their safety and wellbeing.  Legal services are rendered affordably and reasonably.
