We Represent Those Who Have Been Failed by the People and Institutions Responsible for Their Care
At Forbes-Roberts Law, we take on cases where the stakes are highest — where negligence, abuse, or exploitation has caused serious, lasting harm to individuals and families. We represent clients of all ages throughout California, from children harmed in institutional settings to elders abused in care facilities to adults whose lives have been upended by catastrophic injury.
Our practice is focused and intentional. We do not handle every type of legal matter — we handle the cases where vulnerable people have been wronged by those in positions of power and responsibility, and where skilled, determined legal advocacy can make a real difference.
Elder Abuse & Neglect
Dependent Adult Abuse & Neglect
Abuse or neglect of adults between the ages of 18 and 64 who have physical or mental limitations that restrict their ability to protect themselves. Dependent adults are among the most vulnerable members of our communities — and among the most underserved by the legal system.
Financial Exploitation
Institutional Negligence
Catastrophic Injury
Not Sure Where Your Case Fits?
Many of our clients come to us uncertain about how to categorize what happened to their loved one — and that’s completely understandable. Abuse, neglect, and institutional failure rarely fit neatly into a single box. What matters is that someone was seriously harmed, and that another party bears responsibility for that harm.
If you’re not sure whether you have a case, call us. We will listen carefully, ask the right questions, and give you an honest assessment of your options — at no cost and with no obligation.
