Elder Abuse
Elder abuse is an unfortunate reality for far too many senior citizens. Whether it is physical, financial, or emotional, elder abuse is an inexcusable offense. As the average age of the U.S. population continues to grow, so do the incidents of elder abuse.
At OC Elder Law, we are committed to protecting seniors. Whether it be an intentional or negligent act by a skilled nursing facility, an assisted living facility, or a family member, our elder law attorneys help make past wrongs right and prevent future harm from occurring again.
