Leigh Leverette likes to say “I took a backward path – I grew up in nursing homes.” Her mother and grandmother were both Directors of Nursing in various nursing homes, and Leigh grew up assisting with activities and entertainment in those facilities. In the process, she developed a love for older people. After graduation from Delta State University with a degree in psychology, she took jobs as Assistant Trust Officer for a Mississippi-based financial institution and later, as Trust Operations Manager for a large regional bank and trust company. After some years in trust management, Leigh sought and obtained a position as a Support Coordinator for the Mississippi Department of Mental Health. In this position, Leigh assisted mentally and developmentally disabled Medicaid recipients in 15 counties by finding and obtaining medical, dental, attendant care and other needed services. It was from this position that Leigh joined our Elder Law practice in February 2005.
Leigh is certified as a professional Care Manager by the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers and is a member of the Mississippi Gerontological Society.
