I am a private attorney specializing in elder abuse litigation. I represent exclusively victims of elder abuse and their families in seeking damages from nursing homes, hospitals, and assisted living facilities in California for reckless neglect and physical abuse of helpless elders. I am a 1970 graduate of Harvard Law School with over 35 years of litigation experience in California. I offer highly specialized legal expertise for carefully selected clients on a contingency fee basis. I have attained jury verdicts and settlements for my clients in excess of $1 million on many occasions involving outrageous abuse at institutions in California entrusted with the care of our elders. A recent federal study found that elder abuse is widely prevalent and even increasing in California's nursing homes, hospitals, and assisted living facilities, especially as our population continues to grow older. Alexis de Tocqueville once wrote that the true measure of a society is how it treats its children and its elders. I am deeply and passionately committed to doing whatever I can to stop this outrage and to hold these institutions responsible for their abuse of our elders.

Testimonials

"I want to thank you for your dedication and commitment to my mother's case. She is 92 years old and suffers from severe Alzheimer's disease. When she was assaulted by the Director of Healthcare Services at an assisted living facility and her spine was fractured, the facility failed to notify me or to report this abuse to the police. It was only through the lawsuit you brought against the facility that those responsible for this senseless act of cruelty were finally held accountable. God bless you for your efforts." Susan Calhoun "I cannot tell you how much you have meant for my family. Our father was 83 years old when he suffered maggot infestation of his tracheostomy site at a nursing home that was supposedly skilled at caring for patients with tracheosotomies. Our complaints to the regulators and the police went unheeded. You were the one who pursued the facility, proved their responsibility for doing this to our father, and convinced a jury to find them liable. Even though our father died soon after this abuse, your have honored his memory with your work and brought my family some closure on this horrible experience. Please keep fighting for our elders!" - Wilma Perry Wallace

"I did not think there were any attorneys like you. Our father was 76 when he was sent by the hospital to a nursing home and developed huge bed sores that went all the way to the bone. I found him on many visits left to lie in his own feces and urine and he was never given any help in eating food or drinking water. My complaints and pleading to the staff did no good and, when my father died from this neglect, the Department of Health Services found no evidence of abuse. After you sued the nursing home for my family, obtained the medical records and expert medical testimony to prove what really happened to my father, and took our case to trial, the truth came out and the jury understood how badly my father was treated. I loved my father very much and you were my family's only hope to right this wrong. Thank you from the bottom of my heart." - Debra Benjamin
