What Makes Financial Elder Abuse So Hard to Spot

Financial elder abuse often hides in plain sight. Unusual spending, missing account statements, or quiet changes to a will can go unnoticed for months. Many seniors feel ashamed or scared to tell their family what’s happening.

My job’s to listen without judgment and take swift, careful action. With years of experience handling elder financial abuse cases under California law, I guide families through each step with compassion and clarity.

What are Common Signs of Financial Elder Abuse?

Knowing the red flags helps you protect your loved ones before too much damage is done. In San Diego, I often get calls after families notice things like:

  • Unexplained bank withdrawals or wire transfers
  • Missing cash, jewelry, or personal documents
  • Sudden changes to wills, trusts, or powers of attorney
  • Overdue bills despite steady income
  • A new “friend” or caregiver isolating the senior
  • Fear or confusion when talking about money

If you notice any of these signs, trust your instincts and reach out for legal help.

How I Work With Families Step-by-Step

Every family’s situation is different, but the process usually starts the same way: with a calm, confidential conversation about what you’re seeing and what concerns you most. From there, I:

  • Review financial records and legal documents in detail
  • Work with accountants or investigators if needed
  • Gather clear evidence to prove abuse or fraud
  • Take action to freeze suspicious accounts or transactions
  • File lawsuits to recover stolen funds and damages
  • Put safeguards in place to protect your loved one moving forward

You’ll never be left wondering what’s next — I keep you informed and involved at every stage.
