Our Verification Process and CriteriaEach year millions of Americans are entering the age when they can be considered “elderly.” This large portion of population has specific needs that can be addressed by experienced Honolulu Elder Law attorneys.
Elder Law Attorneys can assist both the young and elderly alike with a variety of legal issues. These attorneys are generally widely skilled in areas of civil litigation, estate planning, and even personal injury.
If you or a loved one needs help planning for the future, social security disability, long-term living arrangements, or even filing a lawsuit against a nursing home or financial institution for physical or financial elder abuse, speak with an Elder Law Attorney to find out your legal options.
An attorney can often resolve your particular legal issue faster and better than trying to do it alone. A lawyer can help you navigate the legal system, while avoiding costly mistakes or procedural errors. You should seek out an attorney whose practice focuses on the area of law most relevant to your issue.
An experienced lawyer should be able to communicate a basic “road map” on how to proceed. The lawyer should be able to walk you through the anticipated process, key considerations, and potential pitfalls to avoid. Once you’ve laid out the facts of your situation to the lawyer, he/she should be able to frame expectations and likely scenarios to help you understand your legal issue.
For most consumer legal issues, the size of the practice is much less important than the experience, competence, and reputation of the attorney(s) handling your case. Among the most important factors when choosing an attorney are your comfort level with the attorney or practice and the attorney’s track record in bringing about quick, successful resolutions to cases similar to yours.
Personal jurisdiction – Requirement that a particular court have authority over a person, in order to bind that person to the judgment of the court, based on minimum contacts. International Shoe Co v. Washington is a landmark Supreme Court case outlining the scope of a state court’s reach in personal jurisdiction.
