Firm Information

Overview

York Law Firm is a pioneering leader in elder law litigation, representing individuals and families with a focused expertise in elder abuse, nursing home abuse and neglect, and wrongful death. We successfully handled the first ever elder abuse case to go to trial in Sacramento County in 2002 and have been leaders in elder abuse and neglect cases ever since. Guided by founding attorney and lead trial counsel Wendy C. York—a nationally recognized subject matter expert in this field—the firm brings unmatched authority and advocacy to every case.

At its core, York Law Firm is driven by a clear mission: to make an impact on the long-term care industry for the benefit of seniors and families. The long-term care industry is a trillion-dollar industry that targets seniors, knowing that there is little government oversight. Meanwhile, our mothers, fathers, grandparents, and other loved ones are being misled, hurt, neglected, or killed. We intend to change that.

Our approach is defined by relentless advocacy and a commitment to clarity. We ensure our clients have a clear understanding of their rights under California elder law, their legal options, and the path forward when pursuing claims involving nursing home abuse, neglect, assisted living facility negligence, or wrongful death. We pursue each case with focus and determination, seeking not only financial recovery, but also accountability, justice, and closure for the families we serve.

We have built our reputation on trust, integrity, and results that matter. We are a strong voice for victims of elder abuse and nursing home neglect, combining compassionate, client-centered representation with precise legal strategy.

If you suspect elder abuse or neglect, don’t wait. Contact York Law Firm today for a free consultation. When we take on a client, there are no upfront costs. Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis only.
