Description

Attorney Teresa N. Phillips of ForsterBoughman presents on the weaponization of guardianships, reviewing real life scenarios where guardianships went wrong and shedding light on how this can happen, in her seminar:

The Weaponization of Guardianships (Part 1)

Although the Florida Guardianship Act is supposed to shield the elderly and other vulnerable members of society from exploitation, it can be used as a sword by the unscrupulous. In this 2-part seminar series, we review Florida Guardianship laws and discuss financial exposure and victimization.

In this Part 1, we examine the Florida Guardianship Act and reveal real-life scenarios where guardianships went wrong.

Next month in Part 2, we discuss preventive measures to avoid having guardianship laws used as a weapon with an emphasis on how the elderly are victimized by unscrupulous or overzealous caregivers and family members. Protective strategies are also discussed.
