Nursing Home Negligence - Elder Abuse
Northern California - Sacramento - Stockton CA
Experienced CA Nursing Home Negligence Lawyer
If you suspect an older family member or an elderly loved one has suffered from abuse or neglect from a caregiver or an assisted living facility or nursing home, you need an experienced and skilled CA nursing home neglect attorney to aggressively represent you in court. Elder abuse is an abominable and, unfortunately, frequent occurrence in northern California, and it is imperative to prevent the abuser from repeating their atrocious offense.
The Law Office of Lawrence M. Knapp has successfully fought for justice on behalf of victims of nursing home or elder care abuse and neglect. Some common injuries that occur as a result of abuse or neglect include:
- Malnutrition / malnourishment
- Overmedication
- Given the wrong / incorrect medication
- Broken bones or fractures
- Improper care, poor hygiene and skin care resulting in bed sores
- Dehydration
- Negligent acts or omissions resulting in falls
- Use of chemical or physical restraints beyond what is medically necessary
- Undue influence over the resident's finances
- Intentional infliction of physical harm or unexplained injuries
