Elder abuse can take many forms, including financial exploitation, neglect, and emotional or physical mistreatment. When concerns arise, families often need clear answers and documented evidence to protect their loved ones.

Brener Investigations Group conducts elder abuse investigations in Boca Raton and throughout South Florida, helping families uncover the truth and take appropriate action.

When Something Feels Off, It Usually Is

When an elderly loved one starts becoming isolated, controlled, or showing unusual financial changes, it’s often not random.

We’ve handled cases where caregivers, family members, or individuals living in the home gradually take control — sometimes subtly, sometimes aggressively.

These situations don’t fix themselves. They escalate.

Our job is to uncover what’s really happening, document it properly, and give you clear answers you can act on.

Understanding Elder Abuse and How Investigations Help

Our private investigators in Florida help families recognize the signs of abuse and ensure elderly loved ones receive proper care. Through detailed background investigations, welfare checks, and discreet surveillance, we work to confirm that your family member is safe, respected, and protected.

Types of Elder Abuse and Neglect

Physical Elder Abuse

Physical elder abuse involves the intentional use of force that results in pain, injury, or impairment. This may include hitting, improper restraint, or misuse of medication. Our investigators document physical conditions through inspections, interviews, and photographic evidence.

Emotional or Psychological Abuse

Emotional abuse includes intimidation, humiliation, or isolation. Common behaviors include:

Yelling or threatening
Ridiculing or blaming
Ignoring or isolating the elder from others
Menacing or controlling behavior

We identify patterns of psychological harm through interviews, behavioral observations, and communication review.

Elder Neglect or Abandonment

Neglect occurs when proper care, nutrition, or medical attention is not provided. It may be intentional or due to a failure to recognize the level of care required. Our investigators conduct welfare checks to verify actual living conditions and ensure appropriate care is being provided.

Financial Exploitation

Financial exploitation involves the unauthorized use of a senior’s assets by a caregiver, family member, or third party. This may include misuse of accounts, theft, or fraudulent activity.

Misuse of bank accounts or credit cards
Theft of cash, checks, or valuables
Identity theft or forgery
Scam activity (prize, charity, or investment fraud)

We analyze financial records, trace assets, and identify individuals responsible for suspicious or unauthorized activity.

How Private Investigators Help in Elder Abuse Cases

Background Investigations

We conduct comprehensive background investigations on anyone with access to your loved one, including caregivers, aides, or financial contacts. These checks include criminal history, civil records, professional licensing, and known associations to identify potential risks.

Welfare Checks

We conduct scheduled and unannounced welfare checks to verify your loved one’s condition and level of care. These visits allow us to assess living conditions, observe interactions, and identify any immediate concerns.

Asset Investigations

We analyze financial records, trace assets, and identify irregular transactions that may indicate exploitation. Our investigations help determine where funds are going and who may be benefiting.

Surveillance and Documentation

When necessary, we conduct discreet surveillance to document interactions, behavior, and conditions. All findings are gathered in a legally compliant manner and can be used to support further action if needed.
