Nationally renowned fraud fighter Paul Greenwood to speak in North Dakota

AARP North Dakota is bringing Paul Greenwood, a renowned expert in the field of elder abuse and fraud prevention and AARP Fraud Ambassador to Bismarck and Fargo in September.

Greenwood, a retired San Diego Deputy District Attorney, led the Elder Abuse Prosecution Unit for 22 years and has prosecuted over 750 felony cases involving physical, sexual, emotional, and financial abuse against seniors. In 1999, California Lawyer magazine named Paul as one of their top 20 lawyers of the year in recognition of his pioneering efforts to pursue justice on behalf of older adults. Prior to that, he was a lawyer in England for 13 years.

AARP ND’s Associate State Director of Community Outreach Doreen Streyle has heard Greenwood speak several times, and says he is not to be missed. “Paul will keep you riveted with his experiences and stories of elder financial fraud, along with the work he’s doing to combat fraud with AARP and others across the country.”

Greenwood consults on elder abuse cases and trains law enforcement and Adult Protective Services agencies across the U.S. and internationally. He also serves on the criminal justice board of the National Adult Protective Services Association, and as AARP Fraud Ambassador.

Greenwood will facilitate roundtable discussions amongst law enforcement in Bismarck and Fargo as well as be the keynote speaker at AARP ND FraudFest Lunch & Learns in Bismarck on Sept. 23 and in Fargo on Sept. 25. The events are at capacity, with waiting lists available.
