I work in the medical field and saw a lot of shitfuckery with old parents on their deathbed and the insane ways people would try to take advantage of them. It's one of my deepest fears to end up in those kind of shenanigans and I hope those heir hunters end up in the 7th circle of hell. Elder law is the law/policy area that tries to set up protections for this sort of poo poo, as well as the parallel systems of abuse occurring in retirement homes/facilities. It's one of those areas where state legislative fixes and best practices exist and just need to get passed into law; NAELA is, iirc, the organization that's most affiliated with efforts toward reform on these issues, though frustratingly like a lot of legal practice orgs they seem more focused in promoting the services of their members. It might be beneficial for the thread to identify other such exploitation/scams around these issues, and resources to prevent or address them. edit: Pennsylvania and Maryland both have had task forces on these issues. DOJ has a dedicated initiative at https://www.justice.gov/elderjustice. It has a lot of resources. Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 11:24 on Nov 9, 2023 |
