No family expects abuse or neglect when they choose a nursing home or assisted living facility. Sadly, the reality is that too many seniors and family members in Georgetown and across Scott County, Kentucky have learned the cold, harsh reality of the long-term care industry. Seniors and the disabled are among our most vulnerable citizens. When their voices go unheard, the consequences can be devastating.
Michael Hill Trial Law is the most prominent and nationally respected nursing home abuse and neglect law firm in America, consistently achieving record-setting results. From peaceful mornings at Yuko-En on the Elkhorn and family outings at Royal Spring Park to the historic charm of downtown and the tight-knit neighborhoods of Indian Acres and Canewood, Georgetown is a city rooted in connection, tradition, and care. At Michael Hill Trial Law, those same values guide everything we do. Just as Georgetown looks out for its own, we fight fiercely for families when they need it most—standing up for the vulnerable, demanding accountability, and delivering justice with compassion and determination. If your loved one has suffered abuse or neglect in a care facility, we’re ready to help you get the answers—and the accountability—you deserve.

Afternoons spent walking along Elkhorn Creek, visits to Ward Hall, and Friday nights cheering on the Scott County Cardinals reflect a city grounded in history, pride, and a strong sense of community.

At Michael Hill Trial Law, we take that same spirit into every courtroom. If your parent or grandparent was mistreated, ignored, or injured in a nursing home, we’re here to pursue the truth and demand change.
