Advanced Elder Law Institute - Protecting Our Elders Financially, Medically, and Legally
Program Highlights:
Featuring:
KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Perspective from the Bench on Probate Appellate Issues
Presented by Colorado Supreme Court Justice Brian Boatright
Program Description:
As we age, we become more vulnerable to abuse: physically, financially, medically, and socially. As trusted counsel, we are called upon not only to give legal advice, but also to lend a helping hand in the myriad of complex areas elderly people face, oftentimes without the help of nearby family or friends.
The Advanced Elder Law Institute provides fascinating and cutting-edge information on these very issues, including physician-assisted death, financial exploitation of the elderly, how to advise your clients on what services your community provides, and so much more.
