Wrongful Death: Elder Abuse and Neglect in California
Wrongful Death
A preventable death in a care facility is a failure of duty. California nursing homes, hospitals, and assisted living facilities are required to protect elders and dependent adults. When they do not, the result is fatal. These cases are not accidents. They reflect breakdowns in care, staffing, and oversight.

Navigating a legal case against Marian Regional Hospital for the neglect of my mother, was one of the most difficult and emotional challenges our family has faced. During this time, I was fortunate to have the support and representation of two exceptional attorneys: Adam Feldman and Evan Barr. From the start, Adam and Evan demonstrated not only deep professionalism but also genuine compassion. They took the time to understand my mother’s story, the circumstances surrounding her neglect, and the emotional toll it had taken on our family. They handled every detail of the case with care and diligence, ensuring nothing was overlooked. What truly set them apart was their willingness to go above and beyond, even stepping outside their primary areas of expertise to ensure we had the support and resources needed at every stage. Whether it was securing critical documentation, finding the right medical experts, or simply making themselves available when questions arose, Adam and Evan were tireless advocates. Their dedication made a difference not just in the outcome of the case, but in helping us feel heard, supported, and empowered during such a painful time. Because of their efforts, we were able to hold the hospital accountable and reach a resolution that honored my mother’s dignity and the seriousness of what she endured. I am deeply grateful to Adam Feldman and Evan Barr not just for their legal skill, but for their humanity. I would strongly recommend them to anyone facing a similar situation. They don’t just represent clients; they fight for families with integrity and heart. Denisse Anacona Martinez
