Types of Cases We Handle
Unsafe or Hazardous Housing Conditions
Sober living homes and recovery residences should provide structure and genuine safety. When they allow drug use, ignore dangerous conditions, or fail to supervise residents, people get hurt... and the operator is responsible.

A Sober Living Home That Isn't Safe Is Not Sober Living — It Is a Risk
For many people in recovery, a sober living home is the bridge between intensive treatment and independent life. It is supposed to provide structure, accountability, and a genuine measure of safety. When it instead becomes a place where drugs are accessible, supervision is absent, and dangerous conditions go unaddressed, it is not a recovery residence — it is a liability.
How negligence happens:
Drug use or dealing inside the home
No supervision or safety monitoring
Overdoses happening regularly without intervention
Unsafe neighborhoods with known risks ignored
Residents harmed inside these homes often feel they have no recourse. They may believe that this is just what recovery looks like, that no one will take them seriously, or that the operator is beyond the reach of the law. None of that is true. Operators of sober living homes accept a legal duty of care when they accept residents. When they violate that duty, they are responsible.
These Operators Are Not Above the Law — and We Have the Background to Prove It
Ryan's work with the Palm Beach County Sober Home Task Force and his years as FARR compliance counsel mean he knows exactly what these facilities are required to provide, what licensing they must hold, and what their obligations are under Florida law. That knowledge is a significant advantage when a sober home operator claims they did nothing wrong.
We pursue accountability for harm caused inside sober living homes and recovery residences — including wrongful death, overdose, assault, and the consequences of unsupervised and dangerous environments. Small owner-operators and large multi-home groups alike can be held fully responsible under Florida law.
