Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers Serving Los Angeles and Victims Nationwide

Residents of nursing homes depend on the facility and staff for many aspects of daily living. When proper care is not provided, a victim may suffer serious personal injury or even death. If you suspect that your elderly family member is the victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, our lawyers can help. Serving Los Angeles and other Southern California residents, the team at HodesMilman believes in aggressively protecting victims’ rights. We have built our reputation for superior representation on our commitment to holding those who cause harm accountable for their actions.

Types of Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect

Nursing home abuse and neglect can take many forms and be difficult to identify, especially if your loved one is unwilling or unable to report the problem. The nursing home abuse and neglect lawyers at our Southern California firm can help your family if you suspect your loved one may be the victim of this type of wrongdoing.

Common forms of nursing home abuse include:

  • Physical abuse
  • Emotional abuse
  • Sexual abuse
  • Financial abuse

Common forms of nursing home neglect include:

  • Lack of supervision or monitoring
  • Delayed medical care
  • Isolation
  • Lack of proper hygiene
  • Unsanitary facilities
  • Improper medication

Nursing home abuse or neglect may be indicated by bed sores, weight loss, unexplained injuries, mental withdrawal, or other sudden changes in behavior or appearance. However, these conditions don’t always point to abuse or neglect. To protect your loved one, you should make frequent visits to the facility to monitor his or her care. While there, note any unusual occurrences or behavior and report your concerns to the administrator or supervisor.  For further aid in investigating your suspicions, contact our nursing home abuse and neglect lawyers.

Filing a Nursing Home Abuse Claim

The nursing home abuse and neglect lawyers at our Los Angeles-area firm are experienced trial lawyers who have the knowledge and resources to handle even the most complex claims. We will evaluate your case and, if appropriate, assist you in filing a personal injury claim. In the event that nursing home abuse or neglect led to your loved one’s tragic death, a wrongful death claim may be pursued. We can help you to determine the best course of legal action for you and your family.

For cases involving serious personal injury, a claim may seek compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, and additional damages.
