Elder Law Attorney – Legal Services for Seniors

Elder law attorney

An elder law attorney is an invaluable asset when you’re caring for your elderly parents.

One of the most frustrating things you could go through is having to navigate our local network of care, legal issues, care coordination and other tasks, alone.

Over the years, as the number of older people has increased in our country. Today, people are living well into their nineties or over 100, the importance of legal representation and advocacy for those older people has grown.

The definition of elder law

According to FindLaw the definition of elder law is:

Elder law is a legal practice area specializing in issues faced by senior citizens, such as age-related health concerns; long-term care and housing; wills and trusts; Social Security and retirement; and elder abuse.

There are many areas of law that an elder law attorney can assist you and your parents with. These include estate planning, wills, trusts, trust administration, powers of attorney, elder abuse and fraud, advance directives for healthcare, guardianship and conservatorship, nursing homes, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and others.
