Nursing Home Malpractice
Please consult Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C., your New Jersey Personal Injury Lawyers, for more information on Nursing Home Malpractice.
People deserve to be treated with dignity no matter what their age. All too often, as people enter their golden years, they lose the ability to care for their own personal affairs and physical wellbeing. As a result, they and their families often hire others to provide the necessary care for their wellbeing. Unfortunately, too often this trust is broken by lack of care and by outright negligence.
Under the laws of the State of New Jersey, a nursing home operator has a high duty of care to its patients and must avoid acts of neglect. Both Teaneck and Bergen County maintain, for the most part, excellent nursing home care or acute care facilities; however, avoidable mistakes occur too frequently in some facilities. We at Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. have experience in handling these cases through trial. We understand the needs of the family as well as the needs of the patient. Please contact us for a free consultation if you think you or a member of your family has been injured while a nursing home patient. We handle nursing home malpractice cases in the following areas:
