Paul Hergott warns of inheritance manipulation by legacy hunters
Paul Hergott discusses the phenomenon of ‘legacy hunters’ who manipulate elderly parents to secure inheritances. In the fourth part of his series, Hergott describes scenarios where family members move in with a parent suffering from dementia under the guise of providing care, only to eventually isolate the parent from other relatives.
This isolation can occur through controlling communication, such as managing emails or preventing phone access, which allows the caregiver to influence the parent’s decisions and relationships. Hergott suggests that proactive, regular one-on-one visits and maintaining open communication regarding estate plans can serve as a preventative measure against such manipulation.
