Protecting the Vulnerable

Developmentally disabled and incapacitated adults make up a special segment of our society. Statistically, these are the citizens who are most often abused and neglected. In almost every instance, they are unable to protect themselves.

David P. Moody is a trial attorney. He is committed to protecting the vulnerable—people who have been neglected in nursing homes, in daycare facilities, in public schools, and by government social workers.

“For nearly two months, I served as a juror on a very emotional and high-profile case involving three developmentally disabled men represented by David Moody. The case impacted my life considerably during and after the trial. Mr. Moody was incredibly sincere and compassionate in his support of the abused men. His dedication to these men and this case was remarkable.”
