Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect 25%

I have a special affinity for nursing home malpractice cases because I believe it is our duty as attorneys to help safeguard the care and well being of those who cannot stand up for themselves. I am proud to have added nursing home abuse cases to my practice areas.

AWESOME Attorney

Ms. Deweil was extremely knowledgeable. She always provided me with an update on my case anytime I called. She walked me through all the steps and told me what to expect during the process. Her attitude is infectious and I would recommend her to represent anyone.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
