Posted by Steven | August 30, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect

Nursing home

My siblings and I reached out to Randy’s firm over concerns of our mothers death and the care she received at her nursing home. Randy accepted us as clients and walked us through the lengthy legal process. Through some ups and down we finally settled with a respectable amount. Randy and his staff a...re very friendly and open to our questions. Every email or phone call by us was answered in a timely manner. Randy is very professional and he knows his job, Definitely recommend to anyone who needs his type of legal expertise.

Client

Retaining the Walton Law Firm turned out to be a Godsend. From the outset, it was obvious that the referral I received to this firm was spot on for the particular matter I needed addressed. Their knowledge of the substantive, procedural and practical aspects of my type of claim was and is encyclopedi...c. The investigation of my claim was diligent and thorough; the minute details pled in the complaint reflected that effort. As the matter proceeded to trial and /or arbitration, the firm's staff kept me regularly informed and never failed to respond quickly and clearly to any question or concern I raised. Along the way, the firm took strategic advantage of very recent changes in the law to strengthen the case, and to finally leverage and compel a conclusion and result that certainly exceeded my expectations. My entire experience with this firm was marked by professionalism, friendliness, and caring to a degree that was surprisingly pleasant given the serious nature of matter that I brought to them. I am most grateful to have been directed to this firm and would encourage others in need to call them first.

A six-star law firm

Recently I had occasion to engage Randy Walton and his firm to represent me on a legal matter. I found Mr. Walton very competent and well versed in the matter before us. Not only did he know pertinent statutes, but likely outcomes. He was able to explain them clearly to a non-attorney like myself i...n such a way as to avoid any ambiguity about my matter. Mr. Walton’s competency is also recognized by other professionals insofar as he has been engaged annually to speak to physicians at the annual conference of the California Association of Long Term Care Medicine on the issue of nursing home care and neglect. In 2006, he was invited to speak on the same subject at the California Bar Association’s annual meeting. Whereas knowledge of the law is something one might expect of any competent attorney. What distinguishes Mr. Walton is his empathy, his personal concern about his client and the effect a particular legal matter has on his client’s life. That is a consideration, I believe, that most attorney professionals tend to ignore. Me Walton has also been heavily involved in his community for over a decade. Currently he holds an elective office as a member of the San Marcos City Council, and has worked with organizations such as San Marcos Youth Baseball, San Marcos High School Surf Team, Valley of Discovery Education Foundation, and the Ridgeline Protection Taskforce. He is also a founder and board member of The San Marcos Promise, a non-profit that provides guidance and support to San Marcos students on their journeys to college and career. When all is said, Randy Walton is a good man. I can think of no better recommendation.

Caring and Professional

I reached out to Walton Law Firm to get some advice after I was getting the run around from an insurance company in a claim that I made. Randy Walton took my call, heard my story, and then gave me some really helpful suggestions to help me fight back on my own. Mr. Walton made me feel really comforta...ble, and explained to me how these insurance companies think. While I didn't have a case that his firm would take, he helped coach me through it and he didn't charge me for his time. How nice is that? We are lucky to have lawyers like Mr. Walton in North County.

Walton Law Firm

Our Grandmother was mistreated by an assisted living facility. We found ourselves thrust into a legal situation for which we had no preparation, knowledge or experience. The facility had a team of powerful attorneys and it seemed like we were in for an uphill battle. I contacted Randy Walton based on... reviews online I had read. When we called, Randy responded immediately, took the time to listen and proceeded to take the necessary steps to quickly resolve our stressful situation. He was able to negotiate a settlement for us during a time in which we were grieving and not up for a fight. Honesty, kindness, and compassion are not words often associated with attorneys, but in the case of Randy Walton, they fit perfectly! If your looking for an attorney for Assisted Living neglect or abuse, I highly recommend Randy Walton.
