Seek Justice After A Nursing Home Death

Nursing homes are supposed to be a place where your loved one can enjoy their golden years in comfort, peace, and, most importantly, safety. When we expect our elder to be safe in their nursing home, it can be devastating to learn that they passed on as a result of the negligent or reckless staff who were looking over them.

At KAASS LAW, we understand that a wrongful death claim will not bring your loved one back, but it can send a message to any liable parties that caused the death that those actions are unacceptable and hopefully prevent anyone else from suffering in a similar way. We represent the loved ones of these decedents in California, Texas, Washington, D.C. and New York. We treat clients with the compassion, commitment and dedication they deserve as we seek justice on their behalf.

What May Have Caused Your Loss

The last thing you should do after losing a loved one in a nursing home is to assume that no one was acting out of order before the passing. As your legal representation, we can review the unique details of your loved one’s death to identify possible causes that would make the nursing home liable, such as:

• Neglect – If a resident in a home was left alone for too long of a time, even a few minutes in some cases, death may be possible. For example, a resident who was left in bed for days or weeks may suffer painful bedsores, and the resulting infection could prove fatal.
• Abuse – Staff in a nursing home who are physically abusive may push things to a point where a resident suffers fatal injuries, or even suffers a serious fall with deadly consequences.
• Medical error – Medical mistakes like failing to provide necessary medication, providing the wrong medication or neglecting conditions that need medical attention can result in a resident’s premature passing.

We understand that some nursing homes may try to omit the truth of what happened to avoid liability for their actions, which is why we will take on the task of uncovering the truth and building the strongest claim we can while you focus on your mourning process after your loss. We will work tirelessly for you to minimize the chances of you reliving your loss or dealing with the burden of your claim.
