Elder Law Month 2008

Elder Law Month is an opportunity for all Floridians to turn their attention to the well-being of those who have given so much - our seniors. As advocates for seniors and their rights, the elder law attorneys of Florida would like to bring attention to the issues that our seniors face everyday, such as preparing for possible incapacity, asset and benefits planning, and exploitation and fraud prevention. We thank Governor Crist for devoting May to the issues that affect our seniors.
