Nursing home neglect is a form of medical malpractice in which your loved one receives inadequate or even dangerous care. In some cases, this neglect arises from the facility owner placing profit above quality care.
In recent years, investment companies have been buying up nursing homes and attempting to make them more profitable. The number of staff and the wages they’re paid may be more strictly controlled. Sometimes, more highly-paid staff members who have a greater level of qualification, such as registered nurses and certified dieticians, are replaced with less experienced and trained employees.
Nursing home neglect can have many dangerous consequences for your loved ones, including:
Our client, suffering from dementia, fell several times while staying at a nursing home, and these falls led to his untimely death. The nursing home involved agreed to pay $625,000 to resolve these claims.
Our elderly bedridden client was a resident of a nursing home when she developed bedsores and eventually died from the resulting infection. This resulted in a confidential settlement shortly after the lawsuit was filed.
Our elderly client, recovering from hip surgery in a rehabilitation center, fell out of his bed, fracturing his hip, resulting in an additional surgery, and when he returned after surgery, he was dropped from a wheelchair, which eventually led to his untimely death. This resulted in a confidential settlement shortly after filing suit.
We simplify complex legal matters by providing clear, concise, and accurate answers to your most pressing questions. Our goal is to ensure you have the knowledge..
We focus on high-stakes litigation, including Insurance Regulatory and Consumer Class Actions (auto claims, life insurance payment failures), Business Litigation (shareholder and contract disputes), and Catastrophic Personal Injury (wrongful death, severe injury claims).
We maintain a high level of transparent communication and dedicated support, ensuring class members and business clients are informed of all strategic and financial developments, from initial filing to final settlement distribution.
Resolution time varies greatly depending on the complexity and jurisdiction. However, our goal is always to achieve the maximum possible result as efficiently as possible, often securing substantial settlements without sacrificing speed.
While our record includes major jury verdicts (like the $\$14.9$ million injury case), we aggressively pursue settlements when they meet our client's goals. Our strong trial readiness is a key factor in negotiating the best possible settlement terms.
For most Personal Injury and Class Action matters, we work on a contingency fee basis—meaning you only pay a fee if we successfully recover compensation for you.
Please bring all relevant documents, such as insurance denial letters, accident reports, original contracts, or relevant corporate documentation, so we can immediately assess the merits and potential value of your case.
