I am * and have been injured by son. I did not file criminal charges but notified Ga elder advocates in order to remove him from my power of attorney and health care. After I filed he told management here at Terra Bella that I had something horric in my back ground. They spread it through the community. I have been harrassed, isolated, demeaned. I tried to speak to columbus police about charges if there are any. I need an attorney. Thank you
I'm sorry to hear about this, ****. It appears there are multiple issues at hand - elder abuse, defamation, and potential harassment. Georgia law does have provisions for all of these. However, you may need to consult with a local attorney to get legal advice suited to your specific situation.
