The Injuries That Should Never Happen

When a facility accepts a vulnerable resident, it accepts a duty to keep them safe. These injuries are almost always signs of neglect — understaffing, skipped care, ignored warning signs — not accidents.

01

Pressure Ulcers & Bedsores

Stage 3 and 4 bedsores don't develop on residents who are turned, cleaned, and monitored. Advanced pressure ulcers are a hallmark of neglect — and can lead to infection, sepsis, and death.

02

Falls, Fractures & Head Injuries

Unassisted transfers, missing bed rails, wet floors, and inadequate supervision cause falls that break hips, fracture bones, and cause traumatic brain injuries in residents who trusted the facility to protect them.

03

Malnutrition, Dehydration & Sepsis

Residents who can't feed or hydrate themselves depend entirely on staff. When facilities are understaffed, residents waste away — and untreated infections turn into life-threatening sepsis.

The Law Gives These Cases Extra Teeth

Under California's Elder Abuse and Dependent Adult Civil Protection Act (Welfare & Institutions Code §15657), a facility that neglects an elder or dependent adult can be liable for enhanced damages and attorney's fees — well beyond an ordinary negligence claim. Most lawyers don't know how to prove it. Winning these cases takes a trial lawyer who does.

Most personal injury lawyers settle. Gavin tries cases — and facilities know it. He holds the largest facility suicide wrongful death verdict in California history, one of the hardest cases in the law to win.

Named Orange County Trial Lawyer of the Year twice, California Trial Lawyer of the Year Runner-Up, and an ABOTA member, Gavin takes a small number of facility neglect cases and prepares each one as if it will be tried to a jury — because that readiness is what drives results.
