Elder abuse and neglect is a specialized field of law. Special statutes protect people over the age of 65 who are being cared for by others. If you are looking for attorneys who know this area of the law, you have found the right law firm.

Julia Detmer Our firm works to protect the elderly from abuse and neglect by caregivers, primarily nursing homes and other elder care facilities. Elder Abuse and Nursing Home litigation is our highest priority. We do not solicit cases in other general fields of law, such as automobile accidents or slip and fall injuries. Instead, we handle cases which fulfill our mission to litigate elder care abuse cases, and give a voice to victims who would otherwise go unheard.

Our practice areas, including Elder Abuse Litigation, Nursing Home and Elder Care Facility Litigation, Medical Malpractice, Wrongful Death and Catastrophic Personal Injury are described in more detail under the heading of "What We Do."

The firm's founder, Jody C. Moore, has an impressive elder abuse legal background and brings a unique perspective to health care litigation. You can read more about Ms. Moore and her staff on "Our Team" page.
