Aging is a transition that poses emotional, legal and financial challenges for families. Being able to talk about the issues can be tough. Avoiding decisions can be costly. Having high conflict coversations that don't end well can hurt family relationships for a long time.

Examples of eldercare issues include:

  • How will we plan for our parent's/relative's future housing and care?
  • Can we get past this lingering dispute over inheritance?
  • How do we divide the duties of care for our aging relatives?
  • How can we communicate with each other better?

We can help. Using our experience as mediators for a variety of difficult issues in family and work life, we can assist you and your family members in having the conversations you need to have.

Elder mediation is:

  • confidential;
  • overseen by a trained neutral; and
  • available and affordable.
