Kirsten Akers, CDP
Medicaid Paralegal
As a Medicaid Paralegal, Kristen Akers is dedicated to helping families protect their assets and secure the benefits their loved ones need. With years of experience at Jarvis Law Office—first for four years, then returning in April 2024—she understands the complexities of Medicaid planning and is committed to guiding clients through the process.
Kristen holds certifications as a Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) and notary and has a background in Natural Resources Law Enforcement. She takes pride in advocating for families, ensuring they receive the support they deserve while preserving their hard-earned savings. Hearing the relief and gratitude from clients when their loved one is approved for Medicaid is what drives her passion for this work.
Outside the office, Kristen enjoys spending time outdoors, whether it’s hiking, camping, or riding 4-wheelers. She’s also active in sports with her daughter. At home, life is never dull—she and her daughter share their space with seven pets, including four cats, two ferrets, and a hedgehog, all of whom happily coexist.
Her favorite getaway is her cabin, and she’s a fan of the Artemis Fowl book series. Kristen is committed to being a strong advocate for families, ensuring they receive the guidance and resources they need when dealing with Medicaid and long-term care planning.
