Nursing Home Abuse
and Negligence

in New Jersey

MORE THAN 35 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

When an elderly parent is no longer able to live safely in his or her own home or apartment, a nursing home is often the safest and best option. Adult children believe their parent or relative is being well cared for with all of his or her medical needs met as an absolute minimum requirement of care.

Sadly, this is not always the case. The trial lawyers of Lee Law Firm, LLC, have more than 33 years of experience acting as strong advocates on behalf of those who are unable to act as their own advocates; in this case, the elderly nursing home resident. We are vigorous nursing home lawyers in new jersey who will seek compensation for the personal injuries suffered by your loved one.

Experienced Nursing Home Neglect Injury Attorneys

Elder abuse can occur because of chronic understaffing in a nursing home or other health care facility which houses frail individuals or those suffering from dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. Understaffing is often an issue, as is lack of training for the orderlies or other health professionals.

At Lee Law Firm, LLC, we have more than three decades of experience as trial lawyers and feel confident that we can vigorously pursue justice for those who have suffered harm or death from any of the following types of behaviors:
Abusive behavior including verbal abuse or verbal assault
Physical abuse during transporting or other care
Sexual abuse
Emotional abuse which may cause distress and suffering
Neglect which can result in malnutrition, dehydration, gangrene, infection, bruises or bedsores
Lack of supervision which can result in falls, fractures and other injuries
