Ohio Elder Abuse Lawyers

Cleveland Nursing Home Physical Abuse and Nursing Home Negligence Attorneys

We trust nursing home facilities and their staff members to keep our loved ones safe. Sadly, however, sometimes our loved ones are abused by the very people we count on to protect them. Physical abuse at nursing homes can take on many forms, from assaults and excessive or improper restraints to forced ingestion of food or medication. Some nursing home residents are subjected to sexual abuse, either from their caregivers or from fellow residents left unattended by nursing home staff. Often, an elderly resident is unable to fight back or report the abuse. Sometimes the nursing home will not even notify the resident's family of the event. In addition to being unspeakably heinous, physical and sexual abuse are explicitly forbidden by the Ohio Nursing Home Residents' Bill of Rights. If your loved one suffered physical or sexual abuse at a nursing home, you need an experienced and knowledgeable attorney willing to fight for the full compensation you and your loved one deserve. Put us to work for you now by contacting us to arrange a free consultation.

Should you file a lawsuit? You won't know until you talk to an experienced attorney. Contact us or call us at (877) 696-3303 to arrange a free, confidential consultation. You can get answers, find out what happened, and help prevent similar needless injuries from happening to other people, too.

We handle our cases on a contingency-fee basis: if we can't help you recover money damages, you won't pay attorneys' fees.
