A: You do not need a lawyer in order to report suspected elder abuse. For Alameda County, see the webpage at: https://www.alamedasocialservices.org/public/services/elders_and_disabled_adults/protective_services.cfm or else just call 510-577-3500
Sally Bergman agrees with this answer
A:
MORE INFO NEEDED.
TO REPORT ELDER ABUSE/FRAUD YOU DO NOT NEED A LAWYER.
YOU CAN REPORT TO POLICE OR DISCUSS WITH DAUGHTER
A: You can report identity theft, elder abuse, and forgery to the police. More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue. The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney such as myself. You can read more about me, my credentials, awards, honors, testimonials, and media appearances/ publications on my law practice website, www.AliEsq.com.
