The purpose of
the VBA Elder Law Section is to bring together VBA members who are dedicated
to improving the quality of legal services provided to the elderly. Since
becoming a section, membership has steadily increased and is currently approaching
a total of 150 members.
Many of our members are well known for their expertise in this area of the law and regularly lecture at CLE programs as well as to various groups and organizations of interested citizens throughout the Commonwealth. Various members of the Section Council have been instrumental in preparing an Elder Rights Conference and have been leading proponents of an effort to establish a legal hotline for the elderly in Virginia.
