From Environmental to Elder Law: Introducing Attorney Josh Hunter
Manage episode 517857446 series 2286021
Meet the newest member of our elder law team, attorney Josh Hunter—a history major turned lawyer who pairs environmental policy training with a calm, strategic approach to complex family needs. We walk through the realities of apprenticeship in a focused practice: why mastering estate planning, long-term care benefits, probate, trust administration, and litigation takes more than textbooks, and how mentorship builds judgment you can trust when decisions affect generations.
Josh shares how law school flipped on the lights for him, revealing how constitutional principles and precedent actually operate in daily life. He then took a deeper dive into environmental law and policy, a choice rooted in his love for the outdoors and a commitment to stewardship. That same respect for systems shows up in his legal work—translating rules into practical, compassionate solutions for older adults and their families.
Outside the office, Josh recharges with daily hikes and powerlifting, a routine that keeps stress low and focus high, especially after dense research days. He’s also a strategy gamer—Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, and Pokémon—where creativity thrives inside strict rule sets. That habit maps directly onto elder law: analyze the rules, design the path, and adjust with care and precision. As Josh steps into our Hendersonville office, he’s eager to learn the courthouse rhythms, collaborate with our experienced team, and serve a vibrant retirement community with clarity and heart.
If you value thoughtful counsel that blends empathy with disciplined problem solving, you’ll enjoy getting to know Josh. Subscribe to the show, share this episode with someone navigating estate or long-term care planning, and leave a review to help others find us.
