Aurora, Colorado, Elder Law and Home Health Care Lawyer

At the Law Office of Paul Mitchell, LLC, we pride ourselves on offering clients thorough and personalized elder law representation. This area of our practice often involves dealing with family members who have loved ones that are engaged in some type of self-neglect or are refusing care for their medical conditions.

Refusal of care and self-neglect cases can be very serious. In some situations, the individual that is at the center of the case can be in danger if action is not immediately taken. Our firm helps clients seek emergency court approval to obtain the care that the individual needs in order to survive.

Many individuals believe they are competent and thus refuse care, because they lack insight into their own disability. These unfortunate people are unaware that they are unable to care for themselves. In situations such as these, our firm's years of experience really come into play. We have the experience and ability to not only obtain, but to decipher and develop the medical information necessary to persuade the court that the person is in fact disabled.

• Cases of self-neglect or refusal of care often reveal the need for a guardianship. By establishing a guardianship, it makes it easier for the concerned family member or loved one to ensure that the individual gets the care that he or she requires.

Our handling of refusal of care and self-neglect cases is not limited to the legal side of the situation. We also assist clients in establishing a care plan for their incapacitated or elderly loved one. This can include details about home health care or the placement of the individual in an assisted living facility or nursing home.

Contact us today and schedule a free initial 15-minute phone consultation to discuss self-neglect, elder law, refusal of care or home health care with an experienced attorney. We accept Visa and MasterCard.
