Bio:
Karla went into practice with her father, the late Larry Levinson, in 2007.  Since then, she has assisted hundreds of Delaware families with asset protection and long-term care planning, and really enjoys giving families the good news that they have qualified for Medicaid and/or Veterans Benefits.  Karla and her husband love to travel and have been all over the world, although recently, their biggest adventure is taking care of their young son.  When she gets a few free moments, Karla enjoys running and spending time with her mom and two younger sisters (they all live just within a few streets of each other).  Karla is also always reading – if you need a book recommendation (beach read or New York Times Bestseller), Karla is your woman!
