Life expectancy for men and women continues to increase.
The combined effects of a rapidly aging population and changes to healthcare legislation have brought to the forefront the important legal issues that affect older people and their families.
To enable people to plan for and achieve a fulfilling retirement, to enhance the quality of life of older persons and to promote their dignity, rights and status we at Rosendorff Lawyers advise on legal issues relating to seniors in all areas of law including wills, powers of attorney, substitute decision-making, guardianship, discrimination, accommodation, contracts, financial management, retirement income, taxation and property.
Rosendorff Lawyers aims to:
- Raise the profile of Elder Law within the Australian community
- Keep readers abreast of recent developments in Elder Law
- Emphasize the importance of providing adequate legal protection to the most vulnerable members of the community
- Examine the aged care sector in the broader context of human rights
