John R. Holliman's passion is to help families in Jefferson and Shelby Counties develop and implement the best long-term life care plans for their specific situations. He is a creative problem-solver with strong interpersonal skills and an eternally positive attitude, as well as 27 years of legal experience. John has a talent for putting people at ease in stressful situations.
John says "estate planning is not only about where your stuff goes when you depart this earth, but also about taking care of yourself and your family while you are still alive". For example, read this client's story. He wants to help people make better estate decisions because he has seen so many suffer the consequences of preventable bad decisions. His practice is now focused on estate planning, elder law, special needs and probate after years in real estate law.
John R. Holliman has become especially knowledgeable about VA benefits and has successfully helped many families obtain benefits and develop life care plans that enable the families to care for their loved ones for the remainder of their lives.
