Financial Abuse of an Elder

Edler Financial Abuse

160+ Years of Combined Experience

Elder Financial Abuse is sometimes called "The Crime of the 21st Century.” It is the fastest-growing form of elder abuse. Financial abuse occurs when a person or entity takes or keeps an elder's property for wrongful use or with the intent to defraud. In California, and many other states, an “Elder” is defined as a person who has reached 65 years of age.

This type of financial abuse is most often perpetrated by self-interested family members, caregivers, financial advisors, insurance salespeople, con artists and other unscrupulous sales persons. Financial abuse includes acts such as real estate fraud, insurance fraud, investment fraud, contractor fraud, and predatory lending, among others.

Abusers take advantage of the vulnerabilities associated with trust, infirmity, and cognitive impairments associated with old age. If you or someone you know has been taken advantage of in this way, we can help. All of the Elder Financial Abuse cases we take are on contingency, so there is no out of pocket expense for attorneys fees.

We also offer free phone, or in-office consultations. Please call or email us if you have any questions - (818) 886-2525

Client Testimonials

I am so grateful for all your efforts and I'm sure glad you were on my side fighting for me.
“Dear Alan - I just wanted to send you a special note of thanks for all your hard work on behalf of me and my case. I am so grateful for all your efforts and I'm sure glad you were on my side fighting for me.”

Tracy R.
I won the appeal.
“Hi Glenn- This is a very belated thank you for your generous assistance and advice last summer, when I was appealing UBH's decision for my son. I won the appeal, at least for care at the partial hospitalization level (they wouldn't budge on residential, but the facility was accepting the partial care reimbursement for residential treatment). But the appeal was a great moral victory, and I think it's a great thing to have in the record, just in case he needs to go for treatment again. Thanks again for your generous help, I was very grateful for it. Wishing you a most happy Thanksgiving.”

Terry S.
Your compassion for me and my situation is very much appreciated.
“My thanks to you for pursuing my case with vigor. I don't know much about how these legal things are handled, but I could tell by your communications with me, making sure I was always informed, that you were on top of it all. Also, you were ALWAYS available to me to answer questions, and your compassion for me and my situation is very much appreciated. I have had limited exposure to the legal system and attorneys, but I have never been able to just call and talk to them, as I could with you. I always had to speak with someone in the office that couldn't really answer my questions.”

there are no words that can express the feelings of gratitude and relief I have that you helped us
“I wanted to thank you again for all of your help. My daughter would not be in treatment without your help. I can never thank you enough, there are no words that can express the feelings of gratitude and relief I have that you helped us, and I believe saved my little girl. Taking her back to Timberline Knolls was very difficult in many ways, I wish UBH could know the damage they have done to her by having her go in and out like this. When she went into Timberline Knolls the first time she was not happy to go exactly, no one wants to go into treatment, but she was open to going in and ready, for the first time, to really look at her issues and work hard to get better. When she had to leave Timberline she expressed that she wished she could have stayed because she felt like she was finally at a place where she was getting better and, though it was hard, she was really opening up and dealing with her issues for the first time, something she has had a hard time doing. I just wanted you to know that she was going down to a really bad place and without you I don't know what would have happened except that she would not be at Timberline Knolls right now getting better and I thought you should know this. With unending gratitude.”

I am a life you have touched. May God bless you richly.
“After suffering with constant pain for nearly seven months, losing the job I loved and then being denied my long term disability, I was extremely discouraged when I began looking for help. With a few phone calls from Mr. Kantor to my insurance company, my long term disability was reinstated . The financial burden was lifted and I have hope again. I am a life you have touched. May God bless you richly.”
