Nursing Home Abuse
Senior assisted living facilities and skilled nursing facilities have a duty to maintain a standard of care as mandated by law for our loved ones who have gone into their care. Unfortunately, many senior care facilities are understaffed, underqualified, and fail to give the care and attention that is required to avoid injury. Physical injuries a person in the care of senior care facilities includes slip/trip and fall accidents, bed sores (also known as pressure ulcers), inadequate nutrition, hydration or medical care, ignoring call lights, assault from other residents or staff, or any other physical harm which may occur in the nursing home setting.
Our attorneys understand the urgency of responding to isolated incidents or a series of injuries over time, and are on your side to advocate for your loved one.
Financial Abuse
Our elderly population is especially vulnerable to falling victim to financial crimes. This may be a breach of fiduciary duty such as mishandling of finances by a family member, wealth manager, financial advisor or other individual who has access or control over a person’s finances.
Other financial crimes include online, text, or telephone call scams, companies or individuals who fraudulently or maliciously enter into financial transactions so as to take advantage of certain diminished capacities of elderly citizens.
When you or your loved one falls victim to one of countless scams, mishandling of finances, unfair or fraudulent business practices, our experienced attorneys are ready to act quickly to put a stop to financial losses and hold those accountable who have caused such harm. If you or a loved one are alarmed by suspicious financial activity, time is of the essence. Contact our attorneys for the advocacy you or your loved one is entitled to.

You can go with the catchy jingles that you see on TV as I did, and become just another client. Or you can go with a firm that treats you like family, and sets the bar high by fighting for the maximum payment from your injuries. Very impressed and glad I made the switch! Thanks for everything I truly appreciate you.

I worked with Ashley LaFontaine and she was absolutely wonderful in getting me the care I needed. When things with the doctors got hung up she helped get things moving. She was super communicative and kept me in the loop through every step of the process. Set expectations from beginning to end very well and exceed my expectations!

I met Oliver Pelly by happenstance and after I grilled him a couple of times, I decided to hire his firm. After being my initial POC, I began working with Blake Woodhall. Both were standup guys, and Blake kept me in-the-loop the entire time. He was patient when explaining the process and going over details and understanding of my situation and concerns. Everything concluded better than I could have expected, and Blake acted as an excellent buffer to keep everything at bay. I would highly recommend Blake, Oliver and their firm for any auto accident cases.

Going through my accident was a very difficult and emotional experience. The process of choosing the right law firm can be overwhelming. Choosing Phillips and Pelly was the best decision I could have made. They are extremely knowledgeable and I trusted Oliver’s expertise throughout the entire process. He was very responsive. Anytime I would have a question, including nights and weekends, Oliver would get back to me right away. I would recommend Phillips and Pelly for anyone going through a similar situation. They really are the best.

I have enjoyed my experience with this law firm. Alecia Gordon represented me with my case and throughout this entire ordeal has been extremely supportive and understanding of my own lack of experience and knowledge of legal matters. She is not only kind and considerate but very intelligent and professional.
The paralegal team also deserve kudos as they were always there to assist and assure me of progress and necessary document completions. All in all, I would highly recommend this firm for personal injury claims.

Matt was very helpful in settling a case for my son that was a passenger in an automobile that crashed into a home. My son suffered cracked ribs, a concussion amongst other injuries. Matt was helpful explaining everything to us as this was a 1st dealing with anything like this for our family. It took time and patience as the other party was reluctant to settle. In the end my son had his ambulance, medical bills and a small amount of recovered monies all paid out. Great man, lawyer and law firm .Highly reccomended
