Elder Abuse & Senior Care Facility Claims
Elder abuse is a distressing reality faced by many seniors, affecting their physical, mental, and financial well-being. It involves intentional or neglectful acts of mistreatment or violence against vulnerable older individuals, often by those in positions of trust such as caregivers, family members, or friends.
Abuse and neglect
Elder abuse can result from a single incident or, more troublingly, be part of a complex pattern of mistreatment. In many cases, neglect is also involved, such as withholding critical care and services. Whether the abuse occurs in nursing facilities, retirement homes, or during in-home care, it typically includes actions that cause physical, mental, or sexual harm, leading to trauma, medical emergencies, or even death.
Our Personal Injury team has extensive experience supporting elderly clients and their families, ensuring they receive maximum compensation for injuries sustained at home or in care facilities. If you suspect a loved one is a victim of abuse or neglect, contact us today to schedule a free, confidential consultation. We will review the case details and involve the necessary medical experts to build the strongest possible case for the compensation you deserve.
Financial exploitation
Financial exploitation, a common form of elder abuse, involves individuals misusing power of attorney or engaging in fraudulent activities for financial gain. Our Wills, Trusts & Estates team can assist in addressing these issues, whether it involves unauthorized use of funds, coerced transactions, or mismanagement of assets under a power of attorney. We have considerable experience developing and implementing the guardianship and trusteeship law, providing protection and benefits when needed, and offer estate planning services that are tailored to safeguard seniors' interests and ensure their wishes are honored.
