Helpful information on COBRA and health care reform

The New York Times has a very useful article on COBRA and how it is affected by the recently-enacted health care reform act. It starts:

“If you’ve recently joined the ranks of the unemployed or are worried that you soon will, you may be wondering if the sweeping new health law will help you. Will you, for instance, still be able to get health insurance under the government-mandated Cobra program? If so, for how long? And at what price?”

I highly recommend this group! Valerie and her staff care about you as a person and make sure all your needs are taken care of. You can count on your matters being a top priority…during my five years of being a client, I was always given an answer to any questions on the same day without delay. The entire staff goes above and beyond to take care of you!

I always recommend Johnson & Groninger to people with harassment, sex abuse, workers compensation, and bike law matters. They are excellent attorneys who care about their clients and justice. They exemplify how all lawyers should be!

John Taylor

Being a police officer, I have dealt with a lot of law firms, but as far as I’m concerned, I was completely happy with what Valerie did. She really did her homework. I have already recommended her to others who are looking for workers’ compensation representation.

Christopher Causebrook

Ethical, intelligent, effective and genuine coupled with being a skillful negotiator best describes my personal experience with Ms. Groninger. Her uncanny ability to work respectfully with all clients garners positive results. I highly recommend Ms. Groninger without reservation!

Valerie is professional and very knowledgeable in workers compensation law. The staff was excellent especially Elizabeth. All calls were returned promptly. All questions were answered with patience and understanding. I felt confident that this law firm would resolve all issues that we were confronted with. There was always someone there that we could talk to.
