Q: What is an Elder Law attorney?

A: The name “elder” law can be deceiving. Individuals of all age groups should seek out the services of an elder law attorney, for example, to draft their will or living will. Generally though, an elder law attorney focuses his or her legal practice on providing a wide scope of legal services geared toward the needs of senior citizens/the elderly. These services can simply be drafting a will or trust document and can range to the more complex administration of an estate after someone passes away. Elder law attorneys work to ensure their clients’ desires regarding property, health care, and finances are reflected in the legal documentation that govern when they are sick, incapacitated, or deceased.
