Elder Law
Unfortunately, many people do not realize that their elderly loved one was the victim of financial exploitation until after the loved one’s death.
One of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your loved ones against exploitation as they age is to create an estate plan which gives power to a selected agent to manage their personal and financial affairs.
At Hays Firm, LLC, we are experienced elder law attorneys who have seen an increase of cases involving exploitation of the elderly by their friends, neighbors, and family members.
Elder abuse is on the rise. To protect yourself and your elderly loved ones become educated in the risks and the red flags. Speak to an attorney to set up a plan.
