Financial Fraudsters Attacking Our Most Vulnerable Loved Ones

There are a few different forms of elder abuse from which we at the Ruhmann Law Firm help protect our older community members. These may include:

  • Neglect
  • Physical abuse
  • Sexual abuse
  • Verbal abuse

One of the most common forms of elder abuse which we have helped combat, however, is financial abuse. Financial abuse can take many forms, including:

  • Mail fraud
  • Telemarketing scams
  • Being sold bogus items
  • A caretaker receiving unauthorized access to funds
  • A caretaker receiving funds through influence or fraudulent means
  • The use of fraudulent legal documents
  • Being charged excessive money for a product or service
  • Offering false prizes

It is also not uncommon for older individuals who are still living at home to be subjected to unsolicited home repair work which they then feel pressured paying for.

How You Can Protect Your Loved Ones

If you suspect that your loved one is being financially exploited in any way, you should do the following:

  1. Contact bank personnel
  2. Contact law enforcement
  3. Contact Adult Protective Services
  4. Contact us

Our team of personal injury attorneys here at the Ruhmann Law Firm have helped numerous elderly persons and their families hold the individuals responsible accountable for the abuse.

We work tirelessly to make sure that injured parties receive the compensation they deserve. If you suspect that your older loved one is being subjected to any form of elder abuse, we invite you to give us a call at (915) 845-4529.
