In our own state, according to the Arizona Elder Abuse Coalition, it is estimated that only one in every 14 cases of elder abuse is reported.  This occurs in spite of the fact that certain healthcare professionals are required by law to report suspected abuse, neglect and exploitation of vulnerable or incapacitated adults.   For information regarding how to file a complaint with the Arizona Department of Health Services or Arizona’s Adult Protective Services please visit the following websites or to contact one of our experienced attorneys for help.
