Retire There begins a series of special topics, where we step back and explore subjects that impact retirement. In Episode 130, we invite Law Professor Lawrence Frolik to address aging in place versus moving during retirement and elder law.
Lawrence A. Frolik is Professor Emeritus of Law and Distinguished Faculty Scholar at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. His specialty is Elder Law about which he wrote or co-authored 15 books. His two latest are “Wise Moves: Checklist for Where to Live, What to Consider, and Whether to Stay or Go” (Sally Balch Hurme, co-author) and “Why Did I Walk Into This Room: A Thinking Person’s Guide to Growing Older” (Kenny Hegland, co-author).
