Financial Exploitation of the Elderly
Concerns about an older person's money or property can become serious very quickly. A family member, caregiver, trusted individual, or someone acting under legal authority may be making decisions that do not appear to be in the older person's best interests.
Good Grief Law helps families address concerns involving the possible misuse of an older person's money, property, accounts, or authority.
Elder Abuse
Concerns about elder abuse or financial exploitation can be especially hard when the person involved is a family member or someone your loved one trusts. You may be unsure what has happened or how to start a conversation about it.
Tell us what you have noticed. We can discuss the legal questions, the documents involved, and what information may help us understand the situation. We will not assume every family disagreement has the same answer.
Other changes, including a senior divorce or concerns about who is making decisions, may also call for a fresh look at your plan. Your circumstances deserve individual attention.
If someone is in immediate danger, contact emergency services. A website inquiry is not a way to get urgent help.
