Elder Law
People face unique problems as they age.
They need help from their family and others
to make decisions and do things they normally
would have done on their own. This is a very
stressful and anxious time for both Mom, Dad,
and the kids. An Elder Lawyer has a wealth of
knowledge and experience in solving these
problems.
CORONAVIRUS ALERT: Sweeney Legal is a low contact environment since the offices it works from have a low volume practice with clients only coming in for conferences and executions. Much of its business is already done remotely via phone or video conference. However, Sweeney Legal is acutely aware of the Coronavirus and is sensitive to the fact that many of its clients are seniors and the most at-risk group. Sweeney Legal is following proper control procedures and disinfecting after each client meeting. In addition, Sweeney Legal is happy to do remote meetings utilizing Zoom or Skype. Just email, mail, or drop off your documents and schedule a remote session. Sweeney Legal makes house calls so we can come out for conferences or executions of documents in the comfort of your home or office and you can control the environment.
