About Nancy E.
Nancy E. Kemner built a career advising older adults and their families on legal matters that often arrive at sensitive moments. She began her academic path at the University of South Florida, earning a Bachelor of Science in Business in 1983. Five years later she completed a J.D. at Stetson University College of Law in 1988 and went on to practice in Florida.
Her early years as an attorney are not widely documented in public profiles. What is clear is a steady engagement with organizations that serve seniors. She has been a member of the National Association of Elder Law Attorneys since 2005. In Clay County she took on roles that crossed governance and counsel. She has served as legal counsel to the Clay County Council on Aging since 2008 and joined the council’s board in 2009. She also holds the vice-presidency of the Clay Senior Advocacy Council, a position she has maintained since 2008.
These roles reflect how her legal work intersected with community institutions. Serving as outside counsel to a county aging council and taking an active part on its board placed her in the middle of policy, program administration and client-facing legal issues. Her involvement with the Senior Advocacy Council indicates she has worked on advocacy efforts as well as individual client matters.
Kemner established a private practice under the name Law Offices of Nancy E. Kemner, P. A. The firm name appears in local directories and public records. Through that practice she has handled matters commonly associated with elder law, including estate planning, probate and long-term care concerns, and has worked with caregivers and family members to address legal and financial arrangements for aging clients.
Colleagues and community members who have crossed paths with her note a long-standing presence in Clay County legal and civic life. Her combination of board service and attorney-of-record work for aging organizations kept her connected to both the nonprofit and private-practice sides of elder law. That mix informed how she approached cases and advice, balancing administrative viewpoints with individual client needs.
She continues to practice in Florida and to maintain her roles with local aging organizations and NAELA. Her current practice centers on elder law, estate planning and issues affecting older adults.
