Synopsis

Legal guardianship often feels like a swamp (and that’s how I describe it in my multi-award-winning book Protecting Mama: Surviving the Legal Guardianship Swamp). If guardianship is a swamp, then elder care is a jungle. Is your bank account prepared for the trek? Even wealthy elders see their nest eggs dwindle, sometimes to zero, as they battle chronic diseases or catastrophic accidents.

Do you worry about what might happen to one of your older loved ones, should that person no longer be safe living independently? Well, you should. And you should also take precautions to protect yourself. Particularly if you still have children to consider, you are financially and emotionally vulnerable from both ends of the age spectrum. Do you think that you don’t need protection too? You’d be wrong. Some family members find themselves hauled into court by the institutions that cared for Mom and Dad. Many states allow them to sue for payment from next of kin (and judges will enforce this). See the take-aways inside this book for more information.

What you’ll gain from They’re Coming for Your Elders and Your Inheritance:

1. You’ll know why the state often involves itself in “family matters” and some of the ways to prevent this. Courts seem increasingly hostile to families. They’re Coming for Your Elders explains why.
2. You’ll be better able to tackle the thorny area of where (and how) a person in need of help might live safely
3. You’ll understand the playbook unscrupulous members of the system use to control elders, destroy legacies, and divide families, so you can counter their tactics
4. You’ll come away with innovative strategies for heading off trouble that’s already brewing
5. You’ll be better able to recognize the early warning signs of impending negative events so that you can prevent them from developing.
