As much as many in Ocean County may hate to admit it, advancing age brings with it certain physical limitations. One's reaction times may slow, and their vision may deteriorate, making things that they were able to do with relative ease in the past (such as driving a vehicle) difficult. It may be tough to tell one who ie entering their elder years that they need to cut back (or even stop doing) the daily activities that once seemed routine to them. Yet their physical limitations may ensure that allowing them to continue to do them puts others at risk.

The civil consequences for killing a benefactor
Like most in Ocean County, you have probably heard someone joke about their beneficiaries wanting to “do them in” so that they can inherit their money faster. While such a notion might typically be dismissed as only being humorous musings, there have been enough real-world examples of people trying to hasten the deaths of those from who they stand to inherit assets to warrant statutory considerations. We here at Silvi, Fedele & Honschke Attorney’s at Law LLC have been asked in the past by concerned clients what would be the result of one being proven to have killed their benefactor, as concerns that this might actually happen are indeed very real.
Cognitive impairments explained
You may certainly feel as though you dodged the proverbial bullet if you (or a loved one) are able to emerge from having suffered a traumatic brain injury in Ocean County without having experienced any serious physical impairments. Yet it is important to remember that you (or your loved one) may not be out of the woods just yet. Many of those who have come to us here at Silvi, Fedele & Honschke Attorney's at Law, LLC after having sustained TBIs tell us that the most difficult aspect of dealing with said injuries are the cognitive impairments that often result from them.
