We conduct thorough investigations into facility practices, staff records, and the circumstances surrounding your loved one’s injuries or neglect. We obtain expert medical evaluations to document the extent of harm. We connect this harm directly to facility failures.

Our approach mirrors premises liability investigations, ensuring comprehensive documentation of all contributing factors.
Our attorneys negotiate with determination with insurance companies and facility representatives. We work to secure fair compensation. When settlement negotiations fail to produce adequate results, we litigate to protect your family’s interests.

Families who successfully pursue nursing home abuse claims can recover multiple categories of damages.
Medical Expenses cover past treatment for injuries and future care needs resulting from the abuse. This includes rehabilitation, therapy, and ongoing medical management. For severe injuries, these costs can be substantial, particularly in catastrophic injury cases.
Pain and Suffering compensates your loved one for physical pain, emotional trauma, and reduced quality of life.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life addresses the diminished ability to participate in activities and relationships they once enjoyed.
Emotional Distress and Trauma recognizes the psychological harm caused by abuse. This includes anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Loss of Consortium allows family members to recover for the loss of companionship, support, and guidance.
Punitive Damages punish facilities for gross negligence or willful misconduct. They also deter future abuse.
Wrongful Death Damages are available when abuse results in death. Families can recover for funeral expenses, lost income, and the loss of their loved one.
