Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers

A nursing home abuse lawyer is trained specifically in the area of nursing home abuse. They have an in-depth understanding of the laws that govern nursing homes in the states they practice in, and have an intricate knowledge of how a nursing home is supposed to operate. Because of this knowledge, a nursing home abuse attorney is able to build a strong case for neglect that may or may not include assault and battery, unreasonable physical restraint, sexual abuse, failure to assist a patient with personal hygiene, confining a patient to their room for no medical or safety reason, unsanitary living conditions, extortion, theft, forgery, fraud and manipulating a patient into selling or giving up their personal property.
