Elder Abuse

Hum where to start, i live with my Dad he s 83, dreams he s 40 and acts 120 and we live in lakewood New Jersey.

He has severe dementia and my brother has power of attorney but doesn't have the heart yet to get him into a nursing home so here i am stuck in the middle his other son.

Lets start off with the most serious problem at hand, he recently was scammed / robbed and cheated over the phone by some high pressure phone jockeys which walked all over him as he remained in La La land clueless as to what they had him do, by the time his brain fog left him some 6 weeks later and my brother got wind of it he had been fleeced of $40,000 dollars and has no clue how that happened and how to get the money back.

He was fleeced by SBG Global / Kelso Stergeon las Vegas Nevada it a sports betting setup where they hire homeworkers to place bets for others at local race tracks.

My dad assumes that he s some sort of rich guy and we have no chance to counter sue him to get our money back and we should allow their elder abuse to pass sceech.

My brother is working with an attorney hoping to get our money back in some fashion, my Dad is concerned because my brother thinks we might have to declare bankruptcy because we were suppose to live off off the $40,000 but now thanks to father all we have is $1,500 in ss payments each month.

I've read and heard various things on bankruptcy and they never agree on what s involved, does  one still keep their home and cars and how does one deal with the constant flow of bills that come due each month, car insurance, electric, phone/tv/internet / water / house taxs etc it never ends and how does the local court get the billing parties to back off  and not cut off services and of course lastly how does one find a good honest lawyer to work with, i assume this is a last choice no thanks to Pop who should never be left alone.

Any suggestions out their, any money angels who could support us over a period of time on a monthly basis till something any thing fell into place to cover the bills- any state or local programs that cover monthly bills or real state or local grant hand outs that won t charge me money with the hope of getting money, so fed up seeing grant scams on TV and no one gets jailed .

Any ideas how how i might move out and live on my own seeing how my Pops only job in life as far back as i can remember it to ruin and make it worse for the family on a day to day basis and he's such a never ending 24/7 happy pro at that so worthless a soul . .

Enough for now hoping for Angels, my e mail is usmixx@yahoo.com - thanks for hearing me out i needed that  . .
