As the baby boom generation enters the graying years, a great number of Americans are facing the many challenges of caring for elderly parents. The issues meet at the intersection of family dynamics and the law. And large swaths of the population will be facing at least some of these issues in the years ahead. With these challenges arise the potential for tremendous conflict among caregivers, family members, siblings and even “helping” professionals.
An outgrowth of the growing field of elder law is elder mediation, which in many ways is too narrow a label for all the types of issues under its umbrella: conflict between a caregiver and an elderly person; conflict among siblings as to decision-making, estate planning, visiting, family business; and guardianship.
