EXPERIENCED ELDER ABUSE REPRESENTATION

Fighting for Families Affected by Elder Abuse

As our loved ones start to age, we wish we could be there to take care of them at this next stage of their life. Unfortunately, a combination of responsibilities and the need for specialized care may often push families to place their elderly loved ones in special care homes or look for caregivers who can take care of an older family member in their home.

When a senior family member is taken advantage of and suffers abuse by those who are meant to care and protect them, you have the right to pursue justice and compensation. Abogados Fuertes California elder abuse attorneys are here to fight with you.

What Qualifies as Elder Abuse?

The elderly are considered one of the most vulnerable populations in the country, and deserve to be treated with care, respect, and dignity. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, and cases of elder abuse run rampant. The following are typical forms of elder abuse:

Physical Abuse

  • Slapping
  • Pushing
  • Punching
  • Kicking
  • Restraint
  • Choking
  • Any use of force that causes injury

Financial Abuse

  • Fraud
  • Identity & physical theft
  • Forging of signature on checks
  • Misusing money or other property
  • Taking advantage of cognitive decline to change financial documents

Psychological & Emotional Abuse

Psychological and/or emotional abuse could include threats, humiliation, isolation, and intimidation that can cause fear, distress, and other harmful emotional consequences for the affected elderly person.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the Difference Between Elder Abuse and Neglect?

Elder abuse can encompass physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse. Neglect can be the intentional or unintentional denial of food, water, medical services, and other necessities to an elder person by a caregiver or family member.

Neglect can happen due to intentional malice, lack of training, carelessness, and other factors, and can still be the basis for an elder abuse claim.

What Proof is Needed for an Elder Abuse Claim?

Photos and videos, medical documentation of injuries, financial transaction reports, incident reports, witness testimony, and the testimony of the elderly individual can help bring an elder abuse claim forward.

When Do I Need to File an Elder Abuse Claim?

Filing a claim should be done within the statute of limitations, which is 2 years from the date of the last incident of abuse or discovery of abuse. The sooner you get started on a claim, the sooner you may recover compensation. Call Abogados Fuertes attorneys at 888-764-2849 now.

Do I Need to Pay Upfront to Work with Abogados Fuertes?

Not at all. Our elder abuse attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, which means all case costs are advanced to clients, and final attorney fees are recovered from the compensation amount after a case is settled. This means no upfront fees for you, and no fees until we win*.
