Combating Elder Abuse: How We Can Help
Often, senior citizens depend on caretakers to help them with their finances and daily needs. Caretakers have a broad spectrum of responsibilities and influence over individuals’ decisions. Relationships built on trust can be susceptible to betrayal.
If you suspect a caretaker took advantage of your loved one, we are ready to help. Andrea Cook & Associates has a deep background in proving fault and holding caretakers accountable. Our firm devotes as many resources as necessary, working with investigators to trace hidden or stolen assets.
We are well-prepared to interview gardeners, painters, family members, and other individuals with access to the home, or those who have been exhibiting suspicious behavior. We are tough negotiators who are ready to help clients correct the abuse and penalize the abuser, as well as obtain as much compensation as possible to cover pain and suffering, stolen money, medical care, and any other damages.
Defending Against False Elder Abuse Accusations
We have a comprehensive legal practice representing clients in all avenues of this complicated legal area. This provides us with an advantage in seeking the best defense possible — we know firsthand how the other side works.
Typically, abuse allegations occur when family members are inattentive and lose track of their family assets. Andrea Cook & Associates is well-prepared to work with forensic investigators to determine if other individuals had access to family finances. We vigorously defend clients raising the concern that other family members could have lost or stolen the money.
