Elder Abuse & Nursing Home Neglect

Attorneys Fighting Elder Abuse in Northern California

If you suspect that your loved one is a victim of intentional abuse or negligence at a nursing home or managed care facility, it is extremely important to act now. Filing a well-crafted formal complaint with the ombudsman can fulfill two purposes: to put the facility on notice that they must take action to remedy the situation, and to establish your legal right to seek maximum compensation in a lawsuit claiming elder abuse or nursing home neglect.

If we can show willful disregard on the part of the nursing home for your claims of elder abuse or neglect, we can seek attorney's fees and legal costs in addition to the financial damages available in a personal injury suit.

Elder abuse claims may survive your loved one. If you need experienced legal advice and highly professional representation to explore your options for stopping elder abuse and making the perpetrators pay, please contact the experienced trial lawyers at Carcione Cattermole Dolinski in Redwood City today for a free consultation.
