Protecting Your Elderly Loved Ones & Their Rights

If you suspect your loved one has been abused by their caretaker, you need strong legal representation to hold the abuser accountable. Abuse can occur in many different forms, including financial, mental, and physical. The elderly are especially vulnerable to these forms of abuse because they may be unable to report the abuse, may be too weak to defend themselves, do not have loved ones to fight on their behalves, and any other number of reasons.

Backed by years of experience, attorney Arsenian is a former prosecutor and experienced trial lawyer.

What Is Elder Abuse?

Elder abuse is when a caretaker abuses or neglects the elderly person for whom they are responsible. Sexual abuse, theft, physical abuse, fraud, abandonment, attorney abuse, and more, are all types of elder abuse. Attorney Arsenian has a comprehensive understanding of this area of law and can help you determine whether or not elder abuse has taken place. If so, our firm will work relentlessly to hold the negligent party accountable for their actions.

• Fear of being alone or of visitors
• Fractures, burns, cuts, and bruises
• Loss of possessions or money
• Dirty or unsanitary living conditions
• Unrecognized names on documents
• Unexplained crying or sadness
• Malnutrition or dehydration
