The Inland Empire's rapid growth has brought hundreds of new care facilities — but oversight hasn't kept pace. Our former defense attorneys fight for Riverside County families harmed by negligent nursing homes.
Riverside County is one of the fastest-growing regions in California, with a population exceeding 2.4 million. The county's senior population has surged as retirees are drawn to the Inland Empire's lower cost of living compared to coastal cities. With more than 100 licensed skilled nursing facilities and a rapidly expanding assisted living sector, the demand for quality elder care continues to outpace supply.
This rapid growth has created significant challenges. Many facilities in Riverside County struggle with chronic understaffing, high employee turnover, and inadequate training — conditions that create a breeding ground for abuse and neglect. The Coachella Valley and the communities along the I-15 and I-215 corridors have seen particularly high rates of elder abuse complaints.
At California Nursing Home Law, attorneys Michael Young and Thomas Wallin understand the Inland Empire's unique challenges. As former nursing home defense attorneys, they know the cost-cutting tactics corporate facilities use — and they hold them accountable.
