While attending law school, Casey worked at a Tax and Elder Law Clinic for two years, handling clients from start to finish. Casey explains, "As a result of this experience I feel I have better background then the average student."

Casey was a former employee at Norman Harrison in Saginaw, Michigan. Casey said of Harrison, "He is a wonderful man to work for and is still a mentor to me."

Casey decided to open her own law firm in Bay City, because there is a need in this community for Elder Law. That is one reason I came back to the area, "I knew there was a need, so I'm so happy that I am here for people in this area."

Casey said, "If you are familiar with 'Porters Business Model', I developed my firm using that motto, I've worked with business developers to fit and apply the model to the legal service industry."
