The statistics are eye-opening: A half-million new cases of Alzheimer's are diagnosed each year in the United States, and nearly 6 million Americans are currently living with the disease. Compounding this tragedy is the fact that every person with Alzheimer's or dementia is a potential victim of inheritance-related exploitation. The two scourges go hand in hand, each year leading to tens of thousands of lawsuits and billions of dollars in fraud, lost inheritance, and disinheritance.ALZHEIMER'S, WIDOWED STEPMOTHERS & ESTATE CRIMES is an invaluable guide for the millions of Americans who are struggling with cognitively impaired family members and inheritance-related conflicts. In addition to practical advice and illuminating case studies, this book includes answers to uncomfortable but often unavoidable real-world questions such as: How do I remove my drug-addicted stepbrother as trustee of my mom's estate? What can I do to protect my grandfather with Alzheimer's from a stepdaughter who got power of attorney and is now draining his bank accounts? How do I find the best attorney to represent me in a case of unequal inheritance? For those unsure where to turn, ALZHEIMER'S, WIDOWED STEPMOTHERS & ESTATE CRIMES provides a clear path forward.
