Ashley Lail
Medicaid Specialist Paralegal
Ashley is an experienced and compassionate Medicaid Specialist Paralegal, dedicated to guiding families through the often-challenging process of achieving Medicaid eligibility for long term care services for their loved ones. Her professional career is anchored in a profound understanding of the emotional and financial complexities families face during difficult seasons, particularly those involving long-term or end-of-life care.
With extensive experience in the field, Ashley previously excelled at Lincoln County DSS as a Medicaid Caseworker and Supervisor for various Medicaid programs, including Long-Term Care Medicaid. This background gives her a unique, insider perspective on the eligibility requirements, application processes, and potential pitfalls, allowing her to advocate effectively and provide invaluable support to her clients.
Ashley’s deep-seated desire to help is driven by her personal history. Growing up, she was intimately involved in supporting her mother, who is legally blind and hard of hearing, fostering an early understanding of the importance of compassionate assistance. Furthermore, she, along with her husband and other family members, provided end-of-life care to her mother-in-law, offering her firsthand insight into the intense needs, emotional toll, and logistical demands placed upon caregivers. This combination of professional expertise and personal empathy ensures Ashley approaches every case with both legal precision and genuine care.
When Ashley is not working to help families navigate the complex landscape of Medicaid, she cherishes time spent with her own family—her husband and two boys, currently aged 9 years and 6 months. Her weekends are a testament to balancing her career and family life, often finding her “lugging around sports equipment and a diaper bag,” embracing the joyful chaos of motherhood and family activities.
