    About this ebook

    Ethical issues can occur at any point when representing elderly clients. Offering clear guidance on the most common issues, this book offers a framework for recognizing and analyzing the situation. The authors, both authorities in elder law, discuss the most common ethical situations and how to anticipate and address them. The book presents hypothetical situations, followed by opening questions and advice on analyzing and responding to the issue, and explains the questions to ask based on the 9 "C's" of elder law ethics.
