For claims against a public entity, you may have only six months to file a government claim. An attorney can help determine the exact deadline for your case.
What types of abuse are covered under California law?
California law covers physical abuse, neglect, financial exploitation, abandonment, isolation, and emotional abuse. The Elder Abuse Act allows for heightened remedies including attorney fees and punitive damages if the abuse is proven to be reckless or intentional.

Evidence can include medical records, photographs of injuries, witness statements, facility inspection reports, and documentation of unexplained weight loss or bedsores. A lawyer can gather this evidence and work with medical experts to build a strong case.
