Randy Walton was born and raised in Southern California native, and while is law firm is based in Northern San Diego County, he takes cases in all Southern California counties. Walton Law Firm represents individuals and families in a variety of personal injury and wrongful death matters, including motor vehicle accidents, work injuries, property injuries, and injuries to the brain and spine. No matter the size of the case, or the magnitude of the harm, Mr. Walton believes strongly that those harmed by the negligence or carelessness of others deserve justice for their injuries. As a result, he has collected millions of dollars for personal injury victims and wrongful death heirs.
A portion of Mr. Walton's practice is also dedicated to the prosecution of nursing facilities, including nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities), residential care facilities, and assisted living facilities, including home health care, in cases involving the physical abuse and neglect of the elderly and dependent adults. The neglect and abuse of our elders (and dependent adults) is a growing concern in the United States, and Mr. Walton is dedicated to helping those who have been victimized by neglect or abuse.
Mr. Walton also dedicates a significant amount of time to his community, which he believes is important. He is currently a member of the Governing Board of the San Marcos Unified School District, a school district that serves over 20,000 students. He also is the founder of the San Marcos Promise, an organization dedicated to providing pathways and tuition assistance to college-bound students.

- Q. Why is it so difficult to find a lawyer for Dependent Adult Financial Abuse case when EADACPA awards attorney fees?
- A: It is not clear what you mean when you say the case has already been "proven" in court, but the remedies of attorneys' fees and punitive damages you mention are only realized after a verdict. That means your case must be tried, which you probably know is a long and expensive pathway. If your case is really good, that is you can meet the higher burdens of proof set forth in EADACPA, then you should have no problem finding a lawyer (I don't do the financial abuse cases), especially if the defendant is someone who can pay an award. If the abuser is someone who could not likely pay an award, then that could be an obstacle to finding a qualified lawyer too. Good luck.
- Q. Live in California and was injured in Hawaii on vacation.
- A: Your best bet would be to talk to a personal injury lawyer on the island where you suffered the injury. In cases like this, I think hiring local counsel is usually the best way to go. Good luck.
- Q. I just discovered my grandmother has developed a bed sore in her care facility - what should we do here?
- A: First and foremost, make sure her caretakers know about it so she can get appropriate treatment. From a liability standpoint, more facts would need to be known. Developing a bed sore in of itself doesn't mean someone was negligent. It can happen under the best of circumstances. How it developed, and, more importantly, how large it is will tell us whether it could have been prevented, or that it was ignored. I hope this helps.
