what's elder law
Among seniors, on the other hand, I find that they believe they need an elder law attorney for every legal problem. The confusion is understandable â after all, elder law was generally unknown as a practice area ten years ago. The first thing you should know about Elder law is that it is an incredibly broad area of law. It can include any legal issue facing older adults and their families. It includes things like estate planning, probate, guardianship, real estate, nursing home neglect and a dozen other areas of law.
