This online series will provide practitioners with a reliable and over-arching “how to” when working with elders. The comprehensive programs examine various areas of law that elders in particular face and how to properly analyze the facts, understand the specific area of law, and apply the best course of action for the individual elder. Importantly, this series concentrates on the limitations that elders deal with both physically and mentally and ensures the practitioner can understand/recognize the limitations, appreciate the daily struggle many elders are faced with, yet provide the excellent advocacy that this vulnerable class of individuals deserve.
