Deputy District Attorney Paul Greenwood has been practicing law for thirty eight years. Since starting the Elder Abuse Prosecution Unit of the San Diego Prosecutor’s Office in January 1996, he has been involved in the prosecution of over six hundred felony elder abuse cases. He has completed ten elder abuse murder trials and obtained a first-degree murder conviction in nine of the ten. He was the recipient of the National Adult Protective Services Award in November of 2010 for “collaboration & leadership in the prosecutorial field.”

Expert Panel
Professionals from banking, prosecution, health, and social work fields will be on hand for a moderated discussion about the issues raised throughout the summit. This is a great opportunity to not only get answers to questions, but also to consider the impact of an interdisciplinary approach to the devastating effects of financial exploitation of elders.
