Nursing Home Negligence and Abuse
Reports of nursing home abuse, neglect and exploitation are increasing. At
the Law Offices of GRANT & ASSOCIATES, we help injured residents
and families whose loved ones have been the victims of abuse or neglect
in a nursing home.
Signs of physical abuse or neglect can include:
- Frequent Injuries
- Contusions
- Fractures
- Complaints of Pain
- Passive or Withdrawn Behavior
- Unexplained Weight Loss
- Dehydration
- Lingering Bed Sores
- Lack of Personal Cleanliness
- General Decline in Physical Condition
Our experienced attorneys help clients determine whether the nursing
home or its staff’s negligence, failure to treat or seek treatment,
or inappropriate treatment was the cause of their loved one’s injuries.
What to Expect
As with medical malpractice cases, the firm’s representation begins
with an initial consultation with our clients and the collection of all
necessary records. Once the records are received, we consult with
experts knowledgeable about the specific fields related to the injury,
to determine if negligence, malpractice or a breach of the relevant standard
of care has occurred.
Once we have established a claim and identified all potentially responsible
parties, we pursue litigation on our client’s behalf, including
participating in mediation, arbitrations and going to trial when necessary.
The Tacoma Washington employment and personal injury attorneys of Grant & Associates are focused on legal matters including injury, accidents, employment and discrimination cases. Contact our firm to discuss your case with our attorneys.
