WHAT DO YOU DO AT SENIORLAW CENTER?
I respond to HelpLine requests received by my project, which focuses on guardianship defense for older adults who are allegedly “incapacitated.” The Access to Justice in Guardianship project also receives court appointments for extended representation from Philadelphia and Montgomery County Orphans Courts. As legal advocate, I connect clients to staff attorneys for counsel, brief services, or extended representation to challenge, limit, or terminate guardianships.
WHY DO YOU WORK AT SENIORLAW CENTER?
SeniorLAW Center advocates for the justice, respect, and dignity of older adults in our communities. All too often, older adults and seniors are overlooked and their contributions unappreciated. I am thrilled to be part of an organization dedicated to serving this diverse population.
