Miami Nursing Home Abuse Attorneys
Achieving Exceptional Results for Victims of Abuse and Neglect in Nursing Homes in Miami-Dade, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Broward, Fort Lauderdale, St. Lucie, Martin and throughout Florida
As our population ages, nursing home neglect and abuse is becoming a serious problem in Florida. As a society, we should not tolerate mistreatment of the elderly in facilities that are designed to care for them. If you or your parent has experienced bed sores, fractures, fall injuries, malnutrition, dehydration, physical or sexual abuse, or neglect in a nursing home facility, call the personal injury lawyers at the Miami-Dade law firm of Freidin · Dobrinsky. We offer a free initial consultation for all victims for nursing home neglect or abuse.
At Freidin · Dobrinsky, we have been winning major awards and settlements for nursing home negligence victims throughout Florida. Here are some examples:
- $930,000 for the family of a victim of nursing home neglect at the Franco Nursing Home.
- $725,000 for a paraplegic man who developed severe bedsores at a nursing home.
At Freidin · Dobrinsky, our Miami attorneys handle a small number of nursing home neglect cases at any one time and devote whatever resources are needed to help our clients receive maximum compensation for their injuries. Our limited case list allows us to give our full personal attention to every client. Each inquiry is treated with care and every phone call is returned promptly.
If we commit to your nursing home neglect case, we will set out to prove it by thorough investigation, use of top-flight experts and extensive depositions. Nursing homes are regulated by federal law to a great extent and by statues regulating Medicare and Medicaid. To be eligible for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, these institutions have to adhere to all federal rules. One of these rules is to be staffed according to regulations. Our Florida nursing home neglect attorneys often find that nursing home abuse or neglect is the result of deliberate understaffing.
We work on all nursing home neglect and abuse cases as a team. Although one attorney will have ultimate responsibility for your case, at least one and possibly two other lawyers will be involved in planning or strategy sessions. Our staff includes nursing and medical professionals who are available to assist us in the evaluation and preparation of each case.
We handle all nursing home abuse and neglect cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing for our legal services unless we make a recovery for you.
