Mark Heffner Presents to Rhode Island Special Task Force on Elderly Abuse and Financial Exploitation

Our firm’s principal, Mark  B. Heffner, Esq., will present later today (March 6, 2019) at the fourth meeting of the Rhode Island Special Task Force to Study Elderly Abuse and Financial Exploitation.

Attorney Heffner, who is also a sitting member of the task force, served for ten years as a member of the Rhode Island House of Representatives. In that capacity, Mark chaired the Guardianship Commission and the Probate Commission, the work of each of which he will reference in his remarks today.

In 2016, Mark’s article in the Rhode Island Bar Journal on the history of guardianship laws in Rhode Island won the Bar Journal’s annual writing award. A copy of that article has been distributed to Task Force members and will be available to attendees of today’s hearing.

We hope to publish a video of Mark Heffner’s presentation at a date in the near future.
