Elder abuse can take many forms — financial, emotional, or physical. At MMLaw, we provide compassionate advice and strong legal support to protect older Australians and safeguard their rights.

Protecting the rights and dignity of older Australians.

Elder abuse is a serious issue that can affect anyone. It often occurs within families or trusted relationships, making it especially difficult to identify and address. At MMLaw, we are committed to protecting the safety, dignity, and rights of older people.

Elder abuse can be subtle and may go unnoticed until it causes significant harm. Signs can include sudden financial changes, isolation from friends or family, unexplained injuries, or emotional withdrawal.
