Financial Elder Abuse

The laws protecting elders over 65 years of age from financial elder abuse are quite robust. In the context of trust and probate litigation, the elder has already died and the will or trust has revealed some potential abuse. Typically, there is concern about a caregiver or other beneficiary exerting undue influence on the elder.

If you suspect financial elder abuse by a caregiver or another beneficiary, you want an experienced trust and probate litigator on your side. Don’t delay, there are often deadlines- as short as just 120 days.
