Elder Abuse: Civil Litigation as a Remedy for Financial Exploitation of Vulnerable Older Adults
When: Wednesday, February 21st, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. PT/2:00 p.m. ET.
The financial exploitation of vulnerable adults is epidemic. While police, prosecutors, and adult protective services offer one course of action, many of these cases end up – or should end up – as civil lawsuits. The procedures for pursuing a civil remedy in these cases often crossover between probate processes and civil actions, and may involve a variety of legal theories. This webinar will cover:
- Jurisdictional issues
- Legal theories and remedies
- Client capacity and vulnerability
This webinar is tailored to experienced civil attorneys serving vulnerable older adults. A recording of a previous webinar detailing the legal basics of financial exploitation is available here.
Closed captioning will be available on this webinar. A link with access to the captions will be shared through GoToWebinar's chat box shortly before the webinar start time.
Presenters:
- Doug Chalgian, Chalgian & Tripp Law Offices
- David Godfrey, American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging
The webinar will take place on Wednesday, February 21st, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. PT/2:00 p.m. ET.
