THE BLF FAMILY IS GROWING UP 3 MAJOR MILESTONE WE’RE CELEBRATING THIS FALL
3. Rosies’ daughter, Evelyn, kicked off her senior year of high school. When Rosie joined BLF, Evelyn was just a high school freshman. We’ve watched her grow up, learn to drive, and get her first car. Now, she’s practically an
“Family” is a broad term here at BLF. It includes our team, their families, our referral partners, and, of course, our past and present clients. These folks’ victories are our victories, and we always celebrate them! The more parties the merrier. This month, we actually have three major milestones to highlight among the youngest and sweetest members of the BLF family. 1. Russell’s niece, Aria, turns 1 year old this month! Can you believe it? It seems like only yesterday
there in the hospital when she was born on Oct. 18, 2020, and he helped give Aria her first bath. It’s a special memory he’ll never forget, and we’re looking forward to celebrating many more of Aria’s birthdays!
adult! We can’t wait to watch her excel in her last year of high school and choose a life path. Aria, Harley, and Evelyn are part of what we think of as the “next generation” of our BLF family. It’s so cool to see them grow up! Who knows — maybe in a decade or two, one or more of these amazing young women will be practicing law just like their BLF role models.
2. Cristina’s daughter,
Harley, started first grade this fall . Going to “real” school for the first time is a huge milestone for Harley, her mom Cristina,
and her aunt Ashley! Cristina and Ashley talk about Harley in the office all the time, and we love hearing their stories. We’re so blessed that Cristina chose to move her family here to Houston. Harley

Thinking about that future is beyond exciting. We wish Evelyn, Harley, and little Aria all the best of luck with their dreams!

MEET FRISCO’S NEWEST LAW FIRM! LGH Estate Law Is Our Go-To for Guardianship and Disability Planning
This month, we’re toasting a big win for another member of our firm family: former BLF client and fellow attorney Adriane Grace! She helped found a brand-new law firm that opened its doors in Frisco this June. The firm is called Loveland | Grace | Hurley, PLLC. Adriane and her partners, Kimberly Loveland and Cynthia Hurley, specialize in estate planning, probate and estate
administration, asset protection, trust services and administration, business planning, and guardianship and disability planning. Adriane focuses on helping families with what she calls “complex dynamics.” These include blended families and those with beneficiaries who have disabilities, special needs, or addiction issues. “These families need to have a better plan about how they are going to provide for that person without setting them up for failure or the possibility of being exploited by third parties,” she says. Adriane also advises families on applying for Social Security Disability and other public benefit programs. Her background as a Social Security appellate attorney gives her unique insight into Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid that’s unmatched in our state. She knows who is eligible, how to become eligible, and how to ensure that a disabled
child can inherit assets while still receiving government assistance and income. This is a tricky field that a lot of our BLF clients and their families have to navigate after life- changing injuries. Fortunately, Adriane has a big heart that matches her skills. “My favorite part of my job is teaching people and educating them about their legal rights,” she says. “They’re so stressed as it is, tending to the disabled individual’s day-to-day needs, and it’s exhausting and overwhelming when they have to apply for a benefit program like Social Security Disability. The government is a big bureaucracy! I like helping them understand the rules and how to navigate them to get the most out of the program they need to help their disabled loved one.” We’re so proud of Adriane’s accomplishment!
