4. Our attorneys were retained to investigate a family's suspicions that an elderly relative was being taken advantage of by her attorney, accountant, and other "care givers." Working with a fraud examiner, we uncovered evidence of attempts to transfer more than $1 million in assets.

The firm obtained an injunction and the appointment of an emergency guardian to stop the transfers and to deprive the attorney, accountant, and others of their control of this elderly woman's affairs. The firm also tried and won a Will contest over a fraudulently prepared Will. (Because the elderly are often the targets of fraud, the firm has since developed a public education program on preventing fraud against the elderly. The firm presents this program to senior citizen groups without charge).
