WSBA Elder Law Section

The Elder Law Section of the WSBA serves attorneys representing older adults in matters such as retirement and estate planning, powers of attorney, guardianship and conservatorship, substitute decision-making, private and public long-term care, healthcare financing, and abuse of vulnerable adults. The Section provides member benefits via CLE seminars (e.g., the Spring Elder Law CLE), an active list-serve, and policy advocacy. It also funds the Greenfield Elder Law Scholarship and a paid summer Greenfield Elder Law Internship at Northwest Justice Project, supporting law students working on behalf of low-income seniors.
