Nursing home abuse and neglect comes in many different forms. HM&M has successfully represented hundreds of injured nursing home residents who have suffered from the development of bedsores (decubitus ulcers), muscle contractures of the extremities, malnutrition, falls, medication errors, and sexual and physical abuse. We have also represented the families of loved ones who have wrongfully died in a nursing home due to abuse and neglect.
HM&M has achieved excellent results for victims of nursing home abuse and neglect, including a record settlement and a record verdict for victims of sexual assault in nursing homes. We have dedicated our work as trial lawyers to challenging the culture of abuse and neglect that persists in the nursing home industry.
