Cleveland Elder Abuse Attorneys · Ohio Nursing Home Negligence Lawyers
There is perhaps no greater injustice than nursing home neglect. Victims are vulnerable, frightened and often unable to protect themselves. Despite marketing claims for providing safety, care and attention to our elder citizens and loved ones, thousands of elderly and infirm residents of understaffed, poorly operated nursing homes throughout the nation are injured or die every year because of neglect, misconduct and abuse.
At Spangenberg Shibley & Liber, we believe that it is the responsibility of legal professionals to seek justice and protect the rights of the most vulnerable in our society. Our attorneys have a proud record, going back to our very beginnings more than 65 years ago, of standing up to nursing home management companies that violate residents' rights and safety for the sake of profits. Our legal actions on behalf of elderly plaintiffs and their families have even been instrumental for helping shape the Ohio Revised Code § 3721.13, often referred to as the Ohio Nursing Home Residents' Bill of Rights.
If you have a loved one who has suffered an injury or is not thriving while in the care of a nursing home, you may be right to suspect abuse or neglect. Contact an experienced personal injury trial lawyer at our firm today. This goes beyond personal injury litigation. This is about justice and the right thing to do.
