May 12, 2009 | 2 Comments The California State Bar has updated its publication: Seniors & the Law. With more than 4 Million citizens aged 65 or older, California leads the nation in seniors, and their concerns are a top priority for the Bar. For your copy, send an email to me at daniel@thelegacylawyer.com if you live in San Diego County, or seniors@calbar.ca.gov if you live elsewhere. Among the topics covered in this year’s guide: Social Security Benefits Age Discrimination Senior Housing restrictions Medi-Cal v. Medicare Planning for Incapacity Drivers Licenses Elder Abuse Divorce and Remarriage Grand-parental Rights Finding a Caregiver or Nursing Home For concerns about any of these issues, contact a qualified attorney.
Looking for an Age Discrimination attorney? If you don’t have a personal referral, I’d start with the San Diego County Bar Assocation. Try this link: https://www.sdcba.org/index.cfm?pg=MainLRIS or call them directly at toll-free: 800.464.1529 or 619.231.8585. If it’s an employment matter, ask for an employment discrimination attorney, if it’s civil-rights related ask for a civil rights attorney. Yours, Daniel K. Printz
