Moore Hutchins Moore, LLP

Moore Hutchins Moore in Thousand Oaks, California, represents seniors, vulnerable adults and their families in cases involving elder abuse and neglect. We handle matters arising in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, residential care homes, hospitals and other care settings throughout California. Our attorneys understand that the circumstances surrounding suspected mistreatment can vary significantly depending on where care is provided, and we examine the facts, applicable standards and conduct involved in each case.

Our firm was founded by Jody Moore, Joanna Hutchins and Anne Moore, attorneys who have dedicated their careers to advocating for people affected by elder abuse and neglect. The founding partners previously worked together at Johnson Moore, where they handled numerous long-term care cases across California. Jody Moore began focusing her practice on elder abuse in 2000 and obtained the first civil elder abuse verdict in Ventura County in 2002. Together, our attorneys bring decades of experience to a practice devoted specifically to protecting seniors and vulnerable adults.

We know families may come to us with very different concerns. Some want answers about what happened to a parent or loved one. Others are seeking accountability for mistreatment or want to pursue compensation for the harm suffered. We begin by listening to the family and understanding what they hope to accomplish before determining how to proceed. Our approach is tailored to the circumstances of the individual and the goals that matter most to the family.

Elder abuse litigation can involve complex legal and factual questions as well as emotionally difficult circumstances. We investigate allegations carefully, assess the conduct of caregivers and facilities and work to uncover information that may help establish what occurred. When litigation is appropriate, we are prepared to pursue the matter through negotiation or trial. Our work also extends beyond individual cases, as we seek opportunities to encourage better practices and greater protections for seniors and vulnerable adults.

At Moore Hutchins Moore, our commitment is to families throughout California who are seeking answers, accountability or meaningful change after an elderly or vulnerable adult has been harmed. If you believe a loved one has experienced abuse or neglect in a care facility or other setting, contact our Thousand Oaks office to discuss what happened. We will listen to your concerns, explain the legal options available and help you determine a thoughtful path forward for your family.
