Nursing homes often hire entire teams of attorneys to defend their best interests. They do this because they know there’s often a lot of money at stake, especially if you or a loved one sustained a serious injury or illness that requires hospitalization or surgery.
We can help you level the playing field. We know how to deal with nursing homes, insurance companies and their attorneys. We know how to build a compelling legal case. And we’re not afraid to take them to court if necessary.
Rules and regulations exist governing the standard of care in nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Florida. If someone broke those rules, they should be held accountable for their actions.
