I met someone in the Elder Care field who impressed upon me the need for attorneys to represent elderly clients.
If it makes a client feel more comfortable and able to accept my assistance, it can be helpful.
I have found it is difficult to provide proper representation to a client who prepares their own documents. Because the documents were not prepared by me, I did not have the opportunity to do my investigation and cannot properly advise the client.
I would have to answer this question on a case by case basis depending upon the type of matter and the sophistication of the client.
