City of Anaheim
Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers

From Anaheim Hills to the Platinum Triangle, our former nursing home defense attorneys fight for Anaheim families whose loved ones have been harmed by neglect and abuse in care facilities.

Elder Abuse in Anaheim

Anaheim is Orange County's most populous city — known worldwide for Disneyland but home to 350,000 residents including a significant and growing senior population. Behind the tourist economy, Anaheim's residential neighborhoods house more than 20 skilled nursing and assisted living facilities serving tens of thousands of seniors.

The tourism economy drives up real estate costs, pushing care facilities into less visible areas with fewer family visitors. A transient workforce connected to the hospitality industry creates high CNA turnover in nearby facilities, and the city's diverse population — including large Vietnamese and Latino communities — faces language barriers when navigating abuse reporting systems.

At California Nursing Home Law, attorneys Michael Young and Thomas Wallin are former defense lawyers who have recovered over $250 million for families just like yours. They've seen how Orange County facility chains use polished marketing to hide substandard care, and they know exactly how to cut through the corporate layers to hold operators accountable.
