Strong Advocacy To Fight Elder Financial Abuse

With an aging population and increased life expectancy, many seniors continue to rely upon investments in securities and other financial products to provide resources throughout their retirement years and increase family wealth. Unfortunately, unscrupulous financial planners, investment advisers, stockbrokers and insurance agents often prey on the elderly. With roughly one out of every five Americans 65 years and older suffering from financial abuse, the elderly are estimated to lose up to $2.9 billion per year from investment scams. With three California offices, Girard Bengali, APC, is a focused investment fraud and securities litigation firm that takes elder abuse seriously. If you or a loved one has been a victim, our experienced elder financial abuse attorneys in California can provide the legal assistance you need. Seniors are often highly vulnerable to fast-talking financial and investment advisers. We are determined to fight back with strength to obtain legal recovery when misconduct harms seniors in the community. Contact our firm to speak with a knowledgeable financial elder abuse lawyer today.

Our firm’s culture is founded on providing aggressive advocacy with character, integrity, and respect.

California law allows seniors who are victims of financial elder abuse to pursue three times their losses as compensation, as well as payment of their attorneys’ fees by the responsible party. If you lost a significant portion of your investment or retirement savings, our elder financial abuse attorneys in California are equipped to investigate and prepare a claim aimed at achieving maximum results.
