When elderly individuals are affected by illness, memory loss or other factors, it becomes difficult for them to make rational decisions about their legal and financial affairs. During this time, preying family members or caregivers may attempt to manipulate the elderly individual into making changes to estate planning documents, in an effort to make their own financial gains. This is known as "undue influence."
If you or someone close to you has been affected by undue influence, it is wise to seek advice from an estate planning attorney. At the Bryant Law Firm, we are committed to protecting the rights of victims of estate fraud or forgery.

Examples of Undue Influence
If you or someone close to you has experienced any of the following examples of undue influence, we encourage you to contact a lawyer to learn about your legal options:
- Adding names to estate planning documents
- Removing names from estate planning documents
- Threatening an elderly individual into making changes to a will or trust
- Using threats or deception against an elderly individual to reassign assets
- Making changes to names or dates
Undue influence can come from a family member, friend, caregiver, neighbor or other individual. If you suspect that undue influence has occurred, it is important to determine if changes to the will (or other estate planning document) are valid. In some cases, they may be. Other times, they may be attributed to the fraudulent or deceptive actions of someone close to the elderly individual. In those cases, our law firm can help you explore and understand your legal options for proving allegation of undue influence, collecting assets and righting the wrong that has occurred.
