What is Elder Law

Elder law encompasses many different areas of law that affect individuals 60 years of age and older.

LSNF volunteer and staff lawyers may provide counsel, advice or full representation to senior citizens in many areas of the law. In limited circumstances, LSNF may provide assistance with wills, and other simple estate planning, and some probate matters. Simple estate planning may include beneficiary deeds, powers of attorney, and health care directives. We may also provide assistance with guardianships for those who need protection. Each case is reviewed on its own legal merits for case acceptance.
