When a client's matter reaches Greensboro
Healthcare and family matters sometimes overlap. When a physician client's divorce involved children relocating to Greensboro, North Carolina, the family-law side needed local North Carolina counsel.
For those matters, Jeffrey turns to a trusted Greensboro divorce lawyer, Krispen Culbertson of Culbertson & Associates, while he stays focused on the healthcare-business issues. Read how that worked.
