Elder Abuse Investigations

Professional and Discreet Investigations into Elder Abuse and Neglect Across the UK

If you have any concerns of elder abuse or neglect, you should firstly report this to police on 101 or 999 in an emergency.

At On The Case, we understand that concerns about the treatment of elderly or vulnerable people can be deeply distressing. Our experienced investigators carry out professional elder abuse investigations to help families, care providers and professionals uncover the truth, protect vulnerable individuals and ensure appropriate action is taken.

We handle every enquiry with compassion, professionalism and complete confidentiality — delivering factual evidence that supports safeguarding and legal processes when required.

Understanding Elder Abuse

Elder abuse can take many forms, including physical harm, emotional neglect, financial exploitation or poor care standards. It can occur in a domestic, residential or care home setting and often goes unnoticed or unreported.

If you have concerns about a relative’s welfare, unexplained injuries, missing money or a sudden change in behaviour, our investigators can help you find out what is really happening.
