What is Elder Abuse?
Elder abuse can take many forms, including:
Financial Abuse: Misuse of an elderly person’s assets, fraud, coercion, or improper use of a Power of Attorney.
Physical Abuse: Assault, neglect, or improper care leading to harm or injury.
Emotional or Psychological Abuse: Manipulation, intimidation, or isolation from family and friends.
Many elderly individuals may not report abuse due to fear, dependence, or cognitive impairment. If you suspect someone is being mistreated, seeking legal advice early is crucial.
