Experienced Attorney for Elder Abuse
I have sixteen years of legal experience,
with a track record of successes
in nursing home injury compensation,
recovering real estate and
investments for elders,
and correcting wills and trusts
that were wrong due to fraud,
pressure, or improper influence.
My law degree is from the University
of San Diego and I hold an B.S.
in Finance, summa cum laude,
from the Arizona State University.
I guarantee the high quality
of my work and my dedication
to fighting hard and seeking
the best possible outcome, given
the applicable law and facts, for every case
I take.
Convenience, Contingency Fees, Fast Help
I have convenient, freeway-accessible offices in both San Diego
and Riverside and handle cases
throughout all of Southern California,
including the counties of Imperial,
Orange, Los Angeles, Ventura,
and San Bernardino, as well as
San Diego and Riverside.
I offer evening and weekend appointments
for clients who need them. I'll
begin investigating your loved
one's case as soon as I'm hired,
and will provide you with fast,
knowledgeable legal help to keep
a bad situation from getting
worse and to stop the abuser.
There is no charge for your initial telephone
consultation. Injury cases are accepted on contingency, meaning my fees
will be paid only from money
or assets I recover by settlement
or in court; otherwise, there is no
fee. Financial abuse and will / trust fraud
cases are handled either on contingency
or hourly,
depending on the situation. You
will receive a complete explanation
of my services, fees, and related
costs (such as court filing fees)
in a written agreement for you
to review and sign before you
hire me.
