San Francisco Elder Abuse Attorney

Elder Abuse Cases

Despite new legislation and good faith efforts by citizens to eliminate the problem, elder abuse is on the rise in San Francisco and across the United States. Elder abuse occurs when the elderly, our most vulnerable adult citizens, fall victim to the actions and abuses of other individuals. Sadly, these abusers are often family members or trusted caregivers who should be compassionately caring for our elderly loved ones. If you have noticed any warning signs of elder abuse or believe that your elderly loved one has been the victim of elder abuse, it is crucial that you contact a skilled San Francisco personal injury lawyer as soon as you possibly can to put a stop to it and to hold those responsible to account.

Elder abuse can be financial, physical, emotional or sexual. Some of our elder abuse victims in San Francisco have been charted out of thousands of dollars, beaten and even deprived of food and water by their abusers. Unfortunately, the emotional and physical toll on the victim and his or her family can be overwhelming.
