Protecting Seniors from Financial Exploitation in California

Elder financial abuse is one of the fastest-growing crimes in California—and it often goes unnoticed until it’s too late.

Common Signs of Elder Financial Abuse

Financial abuse doesn’t always involve dramatic theft—it often happens quietly over time, hidden behind trust and routine. Watch for these red flags:

If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s critical to act quickly. Legal intervention can help prevent further damage and begin the process of recovery.

Who Commits Financial Abuse—and How

Elder financial abuse often involves someone the victim knows and trusts. In California, common perpetrators include:

These individuals may pressure, deceive, or manipulate elders into giving away money, changing legal documents, or surrendering control. We investigate the full scope of abuse and pursue legal action to stop it—immediately.

How California Law Protects Seniors

California’s Elder Abuse and Dependent Adult Civil Protection Act (EADACPA) provides strong legal tools to fight financial abuse. Victims or their advocates can pursue compensation, freeze accounts, reverse fraudulent transfers, and seek punitive damages.

In cases involving a will or trust, financial abuse can also form the basis of estate litigation. Our team understands how to use both probate and civil courts to pursue justice—whether the abuse occurred during the elder’s life or came to light after death.
