Our lawyers have helped hundreds of victims of nursing home negligence.

Many people across the country have experienced negligent nursing home care but do not know they have a right to seek counsel with lawyers for the injuries they sustained.

A recent newspaper report relayed the story of one such nursing home resident--a former construction worker who said he heard his foot snap when nursing home employees lifted him into a van while his foot was entangled in a seat.

Adding insult to injury, someone made a crack about his creaky bones, he recalls, according to The Press-Enterprise, on June 7, 2008.

Reportedly, the man who told his tory is a paraplegic, so he didn't feel any pain. However, the next day, he saw the swelling and bruising in his left leg, and knew something was wrong.

Despite knowing he was injured, he was afraid to seek medical care out of fear of getting kicked out of the nursing home where he had lived for two years. He finally did seek medical assistance, seeking help at a hospital. He also filed a complaint with the state agency that oversees nursing homes. Sadly, he was barely compensated for his experience.
