Elder Abuse

Content coming soon!…Accountability for Harm, Neglect, and Exploitation of Older Adults

Elder abuse cases address harm to older adults caused by neglect, physical abuse, or financial exploitation in care facilities or other settings. These claims often involve preventable injuries such as falls, pressure injuries, dehydration, medication errors, or untreated medical conditions. Hiring an attorney helps obtain facility records, staffing documentation, and care plans that can show how and why harm occurred. An attorney also pursues legal remedies that reflect medical harm, personal suffering, and financial losses caused by misconduct.

Examples of elder abuse cases we handle:

• Neglect leading to falls, infections, or untreated injuries
• Dehydration and malnutrition cases
• Pressure injuries and inadequate repositioning
• Medication errors and unsafe supervision
• Physical abuse by staff or caregivers
• Financial exploitation and improper transfers

Compensation that may be available:

• Rehabilitation and long-term care costs
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Financial losses from exploitation when applicable
• Costs tied to relocation and replacement care
• Wrongful death damages when applicable
