Bill is a civil trial lawyer who specializes in nursing home abuse and neglect and medical malpractice matters. He graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point and was commissioned in the United States Army. After serving our country with distinction, and receiving an honorable discharge from the Army, he attended Barry University School of Law. At Barry University, Bill was named class valedictorian in 2002.
Since 2003, Bill has focused on litigation effecting the rights and safety of patients and elder and infirm adults. I have served as trial counsel in serious injury cases in both Florida and California. I was instrumental in two important published appellate decisions on behalf of nursing home residents. Those cases are Sababin v. Superior Court (Covina Rehabilitation Center) (2006) 144 CA4th 81, 50 Cal. Rptr. 3d 266, which redefined the term "neglect" in California, and CORA Health Services, Inc. v. Steinbronn, 867 So.2d 587 (Fla. 5th App. Dist. 2004), which explained the presuit notice requirement in Florida nursing home and medical malpractice cases.
For the first five years of my career, I served as litigation counsel with the national elder abuse firm, Maher, Guily & Maher, which later became the Maher Law Firm, first in Winter Park, Florida then in Los Angeles, California. Bill's practice is devoted to litigation of elder and dependent adult abuse as well as serious and catastrophic medical injury cases.
