Placing a loved one into a nursing home requires complete trust in the nurses, doctors, coordinators and administrators of the facility.

I have handled countless cases involving nursing home injury and wrongful death cases. I have over 20 years of legal experience, and I have secured verdicts and settlements in excess of one million dollars for several clients.

The cause of nursing home injuries or abuse can range from a failure to do background checks on employees, inadequate staff-to-patient ratio, improper supervision of residents and sloppy procedures. As your attorney, I will investigate the facts of your case, contact witnesses like staff, former employees and fellow residents, review medical documentation and police records, and prepare a compelling case on behalf of the victim.
I am experienced in nursing home negligence claims involving:
- Lack of supervision including falls, failure to restrain in wheel chairs and exposure to the elements (this can be particularly devastating during the harsh Michigan winters).
- Staff neglect causing bedsores (also called “pressure sores” and “decubitus ulcers”), failure to monitor, failure to medicate and over-medication.
- Nutritional deprivation including dehydration, malnutrition, failure to comply with medical nutrition needs, failure to observe cultural or religious mandates and purposeful starvation.
- Abuse by staff such as sexual abuse, verbal abuse, emotional abuse and physical violence.
- Wrongful death caused by falls, nutritional deficiencies, medication overdoses and failure to properly administer needed medications.
Most victims and their families want immediate action to stop nursing home abuse or neglect. Once you contact my office, I can get in touch with local authorities to report any illegal activity in addition to filing your civil claim to maximize compensation for your losses. It is my primary objective to protect you and your family and recover the compensation you deserve after an injury or fatal accident caused by nursing home negligence.
