Virginia and North Carolina Nursing Home Negligence Lawyer
Sadly, nursing home negligence is a serious problem facing residents of these care facilities in the United States. From elderly adults to people who are unable to care for themselves, these facilities are supposed to provide the daily care and attention that these people need. Unfortunately, many of these facilities do not only fail to give their residents the care and medical attention they need, but go so far as to physical, emotionally, or financially abuse their residents. The trauma that nursing home residents may suffer as a result of nursing home negligence or abuse can be devastating.
At Joe Miller Law, our legal team understands how difficult suffering from nursing home abuse or negligence can be for anyone in Norfolk and their family. Fortunately, legal action can often be taken against such abusive parties, even for something as seemingly simple as failure to take timely action to pursue medical care for nursing home residents. While filing a nursing home abuse lawsuit will not erase the abuse and its effects, it can go a long way towards helping a victim and their family get both the justice and compensation they need after such an incident.
