When #metoo Meets I’m Sorry

by Leonard Baer | Feb 7, 2018 | Aging, Blog, Elder Law News, Estate Planning, Financial Planning, Financial Scams, Uncategorized

When it comes to youngsters, we accept apologies for bad behavior.  We’ll forgive them for tipping over a lamp while they’re wrestling.  We talk to them about the bad behavior and use the incident as a life lesson.  How about later on, though?  Do we accept apologies...

by Leonard Baer | Jan 24, 2018 | Aging, Blog, Elder Law News, Estate Planning, Financial Planning, Financial Scams, Uncategorized

Shake, Rattle, and Roll is the title of the Bill Haley hit from the fifties, but it could be so much more.  It could also be a tactic to fend off an attack or even, to save your life.  Recently, I assisted in teaching a class of twenty-eight women on self-defense.  We...

by Leonard Baer | Dec 13, 2017 | Aging, Blog, Elder Law News, Estate Planning, Financial Planning, Financial Scams, Uncategorized

This time of year, we’re all busy getting prepared for the holidays by shopping, watching Hallmark movies, waiting for snow, and watching more Hallmark movies.  Then, there is the Grinch literally trying to steal Christmas from under our trees. This year, the Grinch...

Crossing the Line In The Sand

by Leonard Baer | Nov 22, 2017 | Aging, Blog, Elder Law News, Estate Planning, Financial Planning, Financial Scams, Uncategorized

Usually I talk about my clients and some of the problems that they face. It can be dating online, making sure that someone doesn’t snatch your purse or wallet, or the latest scammer that is out to steal every dime we have. So, I thought how about I talk about me? ...
