Experienced Lawyer Handling Nursing Home Physical Abuse Claims

Protecting Injured People in New Jersey and Pennsylvania for More than 40 Years

When you have to make the difficult decision to seek nursing home care for a loved one, you expect that the nursing home will nurture and protect your loved ones in their declining days. Unfortunately, most nursing homes are more interested in profit than patient care or well-being. These facilities are chronically understaffed, and their employees are generally underpaid, poorly screened and under-qualified. As a result, many nursing home residents are subjected to physical abuse by caregivers who lack the tools to properly care for them, or become abusive out of frustration or lack of training.

If your loved one has been physically injured by a staff member at a nursing home, you want an experienced attorney to hold the appropriate parties accountable. We can help.
