Elder law is a specialized
area of legal practice, covering estate planning, wills, trusts,
arrangements for care, social security and retirement benefits,
protection against elder abuse (physical, emotional and financial),
and others involving older people.
As experienced elder law attorneys in Lancaster, we at Pyfer Reese Straub Gray & Farhat PC, understand that clients need informed counsel to handle situations they may not have anticipated. For example, a relative suffering with a traumatic brain injury due to a car accident may require the appointment of a legal guardian. Or perhaps an elderly parent is being abused by a nursing home staff member. Our Medicaid lawyers, nursing home negligence attorneys and asset protection attorneys know Pennsylvania and federal law and how to apply legal tools to help solve such problems. Contact our elder law attorneys today to schedule a consultation to discuss a broad range of issues facing Lancaster County’s senior citizens. We will gladly meet with prospective clients at home, hospital, or other facility if needed.
