Financial Abuse

California, Nevada and Arizona Elder Financial Abuse Attorneys

Representing the Powerless against the Powerful

Bank of America financially abused elderly and disabled customers receiving Social Security benefits. The bank misused the funds which were intended to be directly deposited into the checking accounts of elder customers. In a class action lawsuit against Bank of America, the jury awarded a verdict of $1.382 billion to hold the financial institution accountable for its actions.

It’s a sad fact of life: some people prey on vulnerable elderly people. When the trust and vulnerability of the elderly is taken advantage of, the Brandi Law Firm is here to provide skilled, determined advocacy. Contact us for a free consultation with our elder financial abuse attorneys.

Fighting to STOP Financial Abuse of the Elderly

In our over 20 years of practice, we have focused on helping the powerless against the powerful. When people and institutions take advantage of powerless people, we serve as a voice to speak for the vulnerable and obtain justice.

• Family financial abuse: Many people have spent their entire lifetime building financial independence and securing wealth to pass on to future generations. These individuals have a right to remain independent and make their own decisions about how it should be appropriated. When a family member pressures an elderly relative for a power of attorney or a joint checking account, and then uses those means to defraud, we fight for justice.
  
  
• Investment financial abuse: Unscrupulous business persons can quickly destroy the financial independence of elderly by offering investment opportunities which are too good to be true. Mortgage brokers misrepresent the benefits of a reverse mortgage and cheat elderly people out of the home they worked all their lives to own. Investment agents offer growth opportunities or unnecessary life insurance policies which would never be productive in the years remaining in the person's life. These scam artists habitually take advantage of the elderly and we fight to stop this abuse.
  
  
• Other financial abuse: Salespersons or companies often target elderly people who are easily confused and sell them products that are useless or unnecessary. A bank or financial institution may illegally take fees and other charges from elderly clients, thinking they will not realize the discrepancy. Medical providers double bill for services or bill for services not rendered. We aggressively investigate and hold providers accountable for this practice.
