The loss of a loved one is a difficult time for everyone involved. Trust Disputes frequently arise out of this extremely emotional situation, adding to the stress and frustration experienced by families and friends.
Unfortunately, there is no shortage of people willing to physically, emotionally, or financially harm their elders—and it is critically important to retain legal counsel to effectively protect your loved ones.
Attorneys work with an impartial third party to achieve an acceptable resolution to the issue without proceeding to a formal trial. An experienced attorney knows how to balance the demands of the client with the interests of fairness and likelihood of success.
Temporary Restraining Orders can be filed to get the abuser away from your loved one, and after 21 days, a court appearance can be made to file for permanent restraining orders.
