Elder abuse is generally by someone known to the person, a relative, a carer, a member of the family, a person charged with looking after the affairs of a invalid, isolated, or person who is no longer competent. It can be the relative who is impatient for what they believe will be theirs when a person dies.

It can be the carer who magically becomes the husband, or wife, of a person, isolating all others, changing wills, redirecting funds, having themselves declared both financial, and medical, controller. It can be the favoured child, who is spoilt, and entitled. Some will even hide the relative away, and have others declared not available to see the person.

There are times when the old offence of 'forge and utter', fraud, is occurring. There are times when disputes arise in families over the treatment of, or access to, a person; sometimes these disputes amount to elder abuse. There are times when an external agency taking control is the only workable option. If you suspect elder abuse, manipulation with regards a will, or some subterfuge leading to the isolation of a person not in control of their lives, or faculties, we may be able to assist.

The description 'Elder Abuse' covers everything from stealing as a servant by a carer, to serious financial abuse, misappropriation, neglect, and appropriation of property and rights. It generally involves some form of mental manipulation, or emotional blackmail, often bald faced lying.

The victim may not be competent to complain on their own behalf; they may not even be aware. Where a person is isolated, and told a particular version of the truth, they may truly believe what they are told.

This does make things difficult, especially if they appear competent, and rely on lies they have been told. If you suspect elder abuse, especially exploitation and financial abuse, start taking notes, start documenting what is happening, start talking to other people to try and determine if it is in your imagination, or really occurring. Start taking note of doctors names, dates, and incidents.

Sometimes it happens without family being aware, occasionally the person is deceased before relatives and old friends become aware what has occurred. Generally, without good evidence, the Police have not interest. When it is time to investigate, contact a private investigator to investigate. We are experienced in investigation.
