When representing clients who have diminished capacity to participate in and guide their representation, attorneys must apply unique legal principles. In this workshop, two attorneys with years-long experience in representing elder clients will explain those principles, as well as discussing the differences between powers of attorney and legal guardianships. The session will include an interactive discussion of actual case scenarios, which will allow attendees to participate in the analysis and decision-making process associated with such representation. Questions will be welcomed throughout the presentation
