Palos Verdes Elder Fraud Lawyers
We are supposed to grow old with peace and dignity, but unfortunately some elderly people become victims of financial abuse. A family member, friend, caregiver or in some cases, a complete stranger, can take advantage of a trusting senior. This can result in the draining of bank accounts, re-titling of assets, theft of family heirlooms or undue influence in the creation of a will, trust or deed.
