This Handbook cannot answer every question, nor can it replace the advice and counsel of an attorney when needed. Rather, it provides information of a general nature and answers to some of the more common questions that older Floridians often have. This Handbook deals with laws and programs which often change. For more advice, or when the handbook directs you to a particular agency, please refer to the back of this handbook where you will find a compilation of agencies and organizations that deal with programs and problems which affect older Floridians. Laws and regulations frequently change.
Coverage is as of the date of publication.
If needed, you are strongly encouraged to seek the services of a lawyer.
