Medicaid Planning & Estate Planning

Jason Files has been practicing law in Arkansas since 1995. His clients have included everyone from individuals with traffic tickets to Fortune 500 companies litigating in Federal Court. He now concentrates his practice on estate planning. After decades spent trying to help people navigate the various problems life throws at them — injuries, divorce, arrests, financial problems, and probate fights — he is happy to work in an area where he can help his clients avoid problems before they arise.

Jason attended undergraduate school at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee, where he received a B.A. in English. He received his J.D. from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, with honors. In addition to his law practice, he edits and publishes a weekly review of Arkansas appellate decisions, The Arkansas Court Bulletin. He has been a regular speaker at continuing education courses for attorneys and paralegals and workshops for people interested in estate planning.
