We had the privilege of working with Jeffrey Downey on our case where our son was in ICU in a Washington DC hospital for 60 days. During this time, he developed a very deep, painful pressure wound. After a year of trying to get this wound to heal, we contacted Jeff to help us recover some of the expense of supplies and pain and suffering caused by hospital staff who were in charge of caring for our son. The reason we contacted Jeff was because he was listed as an attorney who was familiar with and an expert in dealing with Washington DC hospitals and nursing homes, and in particular was listed as a pressure sore attorney. After checking out the glowing reviews already posted about his 35 year experience in dealing with the issues that we were faced with, we contacted him. Jeff was very easily contacted and listened carefully to our concerns. He advised us how to gather the documentation that would be needed to prove our case and, in fact, reached out for further documentation to support our allegations. He maintained contact throughout, giving us updates, and listening carefully to our questions. We are extremely grateful that our case was settled on favorable terms without litigation. We could not have done this without his expert assistance and guidance. Thank you so much for everything.

Jeffrey Downey is an extremely knowledgeable pressure wound attorney to have on your side. During my initial meeting with Jeff, I could tell he was both compassionate and a true advocate for patient justice. As an RN, I knew I needed an attorney with expertise and knowledge of the law surrounding nursing home neglect and the development of pressure wounds. His expertise and experience was bar none. My elderly mother developed a pressure sore at the hands of nursing home neglect and she eventually died from the infection of the pressure sore. Attorney Downey guided me through my mother’s wrongful death case with compassion and dedication throughout the entire litigation. As a nurse, I had numerous questions and concerns regarding my mother’s case. Attorney Downey always kept me abreast of the developments in the case and was a clear communicator every step of the way. He gave me direct access to his personal cell phone number and he was always available anytime I needed him. This ready access to Jeff was even more important due to the fact that I lived 700 miles away from Virginia. Attorney Downey fought tirelessly to get me a fair settlement and I will always be grateful for his compassion to myself as well as for his expertise in the area of nursing home neglect. The law office of Jeffrey Downey is simply the BEST! I highly recommend using this firm for any neglect your loved one has endured at the hands of a nursing home.

My adult daughter was in a horrible traffic accident in Virginia. Jeff took the case when others would not. Jeff worked for a year and a half to reach our goals.

Attorney Downey assisted me with an insurance settlement case after the death of my husband that unfortunately involved a dispute among family members. He successfully obtained the maximum payout from the insurance companies and though he was my attorney, he treated all parties with the utmost care and respect. Jeff kept me informed of all correspondence related to my case. His knowledge of the law, his professionalism and most of all, his concern for all of us made a very difficult situation easier to endure. Thank you, Jeff - I am forever grateful for your services!

My mother-in-law was with a national Assisted Living company who failed miserably at caring for her resulting in falls, bed sores, and eventually death. We retained Jeff who was able to negotiate with the Company and settle the case out of the courts - which resulted in quicker time to funds to be used to settle her estate. He knows this space cold and it a real professional.

I have defended many nursing home cases over the years in which Jeff Downey was the plaintiff's lawyer. He was always aggressive in representing his clients, extremely knowledgeable, well-prepared, and highly ethical. Jeff and I have made presentations together on nursing home litigation panels and for continuing legal education courses and his collegiality and professionalism have made him a pleasure to work with.

Jeff is an excellent litigator and has a vast amount of experience and expertise as an advocate of behalf of neglected and abused nursing home patients.

We had a very positive experience with Jeffrey Downey throughout the whole legal process surrounding our family members death and mistreatment. Mr Downey kept us informed of all the ups and downs involved and explained things in layman terms so we could clearly understand what was going on the legal front. Jeffery was friendly and down to earth in all our meetings and we always felt good about the process. He also prepped us well prior to meeting with opposing lawyer. I came away from this relationship with the feeling that we had been taken care of very well throughout the whole process. If you want someone who manages all aspects very well Jeffery is your man.
