In law school we were regularly given research and writing projects during our first year.

The hardest project we had to research involved financial elder abuse.

The reason it was so hard was the sheer number of cases on the matter. Finding the right cases for your particular fact pattern was more difficult because all of your searches turned up a horrific number of cases.

Helps give you an idea of how common this form of abuse is.

The pattern I mostly saw in the cases was a family “friend,” or an interloper claiming to be a caregiver, or even another family member trying to take over the elderly person’s life to gain control of their finances. It’s shockingly commonplace.
