At Velan Law Firm, we are appalled because there are hundreds of thousands of elderly people in the United States that are the victims of physical abuse, exploitation, neglect, and other forms of elder abuse. Our San Francisco Bay Area personal injury attorneys represent elderly clients that have been abused by family members, nurses, and other professional caregivers. Our law firm also represents family members that have lost loved ones because of elder abuse.

Elderly people tend to be targeted for abuse because many of them are physically fragile, vulnerable, and dependent on the care of the people around them.

Common forms of elder abuse:

• Physical abuse
• Sexual abuse
• Psychological abuse
• Emotional abuse
• Verbal abuse
• Emotional neglect
• Physical neglect
• Abandonment
• Deprivation of food or medical care

Attorney Victor Lipovetsky and his legal team have successfully handled elder abuse cases throughout Daly City, San Mateo, Piedmont, San Francisco, Berkeley, Emeryville, Colma, South San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Burlingame, Foster City and elsewhere in San Francisco County, Alameda County, Marin County, Santa Clara County, Contra Costa County, and San Mateo County.

You will only pay for our services if we obtain your recovery. Otherwise, our services are free. Our personal injury attorneys can visit you at home or at the hospital if you are unable to visit our law office.

In California, the statutes of limitations for filing personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits are very strict. You should contact a personal injury attorney immediately so that you can meet all deadlines for your case. DO NOT talk to any insurance companies before talking to a personal injury lawyer first.

If you think that your elderly relative or friend is a victim of elder abuse, you must take action immediately. Call Velan Law Firm at (415) 379-9300 or—toll-free—at (888) 988-7700 to ask your FREE consultation. You can also contact us online.
