When you look at how these facilities are actually run, residents aren't people with care needs.
They're census heads in a bed. A spreadsheet can't measure pain and suffering, and when profits
come first, neglect follows and patients pay the price. The fix isn't complicated: make clinical
outcomes a business metric. Track whether people are getting rehabbed and going home. That's
what the job is, and operators who actually do it will build better businesses because of it.

Some of these nursing home operators see a number. We see a life.

Neglect begins the moment a patient becomes a line item. The spreadsheets inside these facilities track ROI, EBITDA, and census counts, but what they don't track is who the person actually is, what their care needs are,
or how that care is going to be delivered.

That is what they get paid to do, and it has to show up in how they run the business.

There was a link on the CMS.gov website, a resource specifically designed to help seniors and families evaluate nursing home quality. It was there in 2022. Yesterday, going to share it with a family who needed it, the link was gone. Replaced by a White House page marking the country's 250th anniversary. The information families need to make one of the most important decisions of their lives, just gone.

What are your thoughts on that?

If there's one thing to go back and say on the first day of law school, it's this: it's not about how
smart you think you are. It's about how hard you work and your willingness to keep learning.
Lawyers are famously guilty of overestimating their own intelligence, and there's often a fair
amount of arrogance wrapped up in where someone went to school. We've worked alongside
attorneys from the biggest law schools in the country, and some of them aren't as sharp as their
credentials suggest.

A lot of clients are nervous when they find out they have to give a deposition. The process starts
with explaining exactly what it is: who will be in the room, what the room looks like, and how the
whole thing works. When someone understands the rules going in, they're already less anxious.
But the most effective preparation comes from sitting down and asking clients what they're actually
scared about, whether that's what to wear or something deeper about the case itself. Talking
through those fears out loud is what really gets someone ready.

There are wins in a case that clients never even know happened.

The biggest ones celebrated
around here are motions to compel. The client doesn't see it, the press doesn't cover it, but
winning one means the defendants have to produce evidence they were fighting to keep hidden.

That's what moves a case forward, and it's worth celebrating every time it happens even if nobody
outside this office knows it did.

When I'm taking depositions of CEOs and key management witnesses, it's common to have a
team of several defense lawyers sitting across from me.

Attorneys from Washington D.C., the LA office, the New York office, all there for one deposition. Our response is always the same: bring it on. If you need that many people from that many places, it says something about how they see the threat on the other side of the table.

The truth is the best weapon in the room, and that's exactly why they need so many lawyers.

Just came back from a court appearance last Friday. There were seven attorneys on the corporate
defense side and our team on the other. That's not unusual in these cases. It's the classic David
and Goliath setup, and we are David every single time. The difference is we're on the right side of
it, and our job is to take Goliath down and make sure our seniors are seen, visible, and cared for.
Being outnumbered has never changed the outcome.

Most nursing facilities are ultimately owned by companies that have nothing to do with healthcare.

It's a real estate play. A skilled nursing facility generates more revenue per building than almost
anything else you can do with that land, so corporations buy in, layer the ownership structure, and
siphon money out through understaffing and cutting corners on care. The residents suffer for it
because their wellbeing was never really the business model. If the quality of care is going to
meaningfully change, those corporations need to get out of the elder care industry entirely.
