About Gerald Vanover, Jr.
I’ve lived in Kentucky my whole life. I love the state of Kentucky and the people of Kentucky. Helping give the people of this state a hand when they are in trouble with an injury or illness makes me feel proud. I wouldn’t have wanted to grow up and live anywhere else.
In 2009, I began working at Morgan, Collins, Yeast & Salyer where I practice administrative law including Workers’ Compensation and Social Security Disability, both state and federal claims. I’ve had cousins, uncles and grandfathers who have worked in the mines so I know what it’s like when you need these benefits.
