PROTECTIONS FOR VULNERABLE ADULTS

Vulnerable adults—whether due to age, disability, illness, or diminished capacity—may be at increased risk of abuse, neglect, fraud, or financial exploitation. We assist clients and families in identifying risks and taking appropriate legal action.

  • Emergency court orders to prevent theft from bank accounts
  • Preventing exploitation of Powers of Attorney
  • Creating authorizing documents for trusted individuals
  • Managing financial accounts
  • Creating guardianships and less restrictive alternatives
  • Preparing wills and powers of attorney, protective trusts, and other aids for personal and financial security
  • Reviewing and revising planning documents that no longer reflect a person’s desires
  • Revoking old wills, powers of attorney, transfer on death deeds, health care directives, and other documents in order to update a person’s planning

Always hire an attorney for these important matters.
We focus on providing the best possible personal attention, along with reasonable fees.
