Maryland Trial Lawyer
Robert D. Ahlstrom, a Maryland trial attorney since 1974, has a long history of successfully representing individuals and families in cases where they have been injured because of the negligence of others. Over the years, he has gained the legal knowledge, trial, and life experiences that allow him to represent clients in a unique and compelling manner.
In 1997, Mr. Ahlstrom successfully represented the family of an elderly assisted living resident who fell to her death from an inadequately secured window. Since then, his practice has increasingly focused on negligent and abusive treatment of people who reside in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and other long-term care settings. He is recognized by his Maryland peers as a pioneer in the field of nursing home and assisted living negligence and abuse cases. He provides effective representation to the elderly and to other vulnerable persons who have been mistreated in care facilities and hospitals.
Understanding the Value of Life
Mr. Ahlstrom's ability to represent elderly clients effectively is rooted in his appreciation for the value of the life of each individual. Another factor in his continued success is his years of experience prosecuting personal injury claims. He is able to evaluate the unique features of each case and present complex issues in an understandable way.
