What is Nursing Home Abuse?
The most common forms of nursing home abuse include financial abuse, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse. Nursing home residents can also suffer from neglect, a unique form of abuse that can result in serious bedsores, malnutrition, severe illnesses, and other injuries.
The signs of abuse will vary depending on the type of abuse your loved one may be suffering. However, if you notice your loved one suffering from a sudden onslaught of injuries, or if their personality starts to drastically change, it may be time to reach out to an experienced nursing home abuse attorney in Long Beach.
How Can a Long Beach Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer Help Your Family?
Working with a nursing home abuse lawyer makes it easier for you and your loved ones to navigate the legal system in the wake of serious abuse. We’re prepared to put our understanding of civil law to work on your behalf in and out of court so insurers and liable parties can’t minimize your losses or misrepresent your loved one’s treatment.
Additionally, we can help you determine what course of action might best help your loved one recover from financial, physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. We want to put your recovery goals first and can tailor our legal strategies to fit your needs.
Most importantly, we can preserve your right to legal action. If you want to move forward with a nursing home abuse claim in civil court, you need to finalize your paperwork before California’s personal injury statute of limitations (Cal. Civ. Code § 335.1) expires. We can keep you on top of your filing deadline without infringing on your family’s time to heal.
Who Can File a Nursing Home Abuse Claim?
California lawmakers understand that abuse victims, particularly those in nursing homes, may not have the means to defend themselves or take their abusers to civil court. As such, the courts allow certain family members, including a victim’s spouse, parents, children, or personal executor, to act in civil court on their behalf.
If you’re not sure whether or not you qualify to file a civil claim on behalf of a nursing home abuse victim, contact our Long Beach nursing home abuse attorneys to discuss the logistics of a loved one’s case. We can clarify your right to act and make sure you have skilled representation throughout that process.
What Does a Nursing Home Abuse Claim Do?
A nursing home abuse claim filed with California’s civil courts does not allow you to hold a nursing home criminally accountable for a loved one’s mistreatment. These claims are designed to compensate you and a loved one for the wrongs a loved one suffered while under a nursing home staff’s care.
Whether you choose to negotiate for an abuse settlement or take your case to trial, you can expect to fight for a settlement that accurately reflects the economic value of the pain and suffering, emotional distress, and physical losses your loved one endured. You can work with our team to assign these losses specific dollar values.
What’s the Average Value of a Nursing Home Abuse Claim?
There is no overarching “average” when it comes to nursing home abuse settlement values. Each claim targets unique losses and unique instances of abuse.
A Long Beach nursing home abuse attorney with Omega Law Group will not refer to an average when assigning a dollar value to your loved one’s case. Instead, we will individually account for your loved one’s losses and make sure those expenses are reflected in your claim.
How Much Does a Long Beach Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer Cost?
Omega Law Group doesn’t want to lock its services behind a paywall. We make our representative available to victims of nursing home abuse and their families on a contingency fee basis. In other words, you can start working with our team without putting down a deposit or paying a retainer.
Your nursing home abuse case consultation with our staff comes free of charge and lets you outline what goals you have for your recovery. Once we know how you want to approach your case, our team can tailor our services to suit your needs, all without charging you a dime.
We do not get paid for our nursing home abuse representation until we win your case. The lack of financial stress makes it that much easier for families and abuse victims to secure the support they need during some of the most difficult days of their lives.
