COURSE DETAILS

In this collaborative CLE program, the New York County Lawyers Association’s Securities and Exchanges Committee and Elder Law Committee unite to equip attorneys with the knowledge to assist their clients and loved ones to address financial fraud.

 

According to the FBI, millions of seniors are targets of fraud annually amounting to billions of dollars of losses. Criminals frequently view seniors as prime targets for scams due to their substantial retirement savings and tendency to trust others. They often take advantage of victims’ mental or physical challenges, as well as their emotional needs and vulnerabilities to achieve their fraudulent objectives.

 

Join our program featuring the elder law and financial services attorneys who will explain senior financial exploitation, the law and best practices to protect clients’ and loved ones’ assets.

  • Understanding Financial Fraud and Abuse 
    • Senior Susceptibility
    • Elder Practitioner Issues/Challenges
    • Top Frauds & Real-Life Examples
