California Nursing Home Abuse Attorneys

The neglect and abuse of the powerless always sparks outrage when we learn of it. Sadly, many elderly and vulnerable people suffer neglect and abuse in silence. If you suspect that your family member has not received proper treatment or has suffered physical or emotional abuse in a nursing home, assisted living, or home health care situation, you need to take action to relieve their suffering.

At Walters & Caietti, our California nursing home abuse attorneys help get justice and compensation for victims of caregiver neglect and abuse. In the best of situations by taking action our lawyers can alleviate the suffering of the victim and obtain rightful compensation for their ordeal. In cases where the victim has passed away, we work to obtain public recognition of the wrong done, and compensation for the victim’s family as a means of preventing further abuse.

Financial Abuse of the Elderly

Abuse of the elderly can occur in many ways, including financial abuse and fraud. Financial advisors and sales people can steer the elderly into inappropriate investments. A friend, relative, or child of the victim may induce the victim to change a will or sell property at a fraction of its real value.

As experienced elder abuse and probate litigation attorneys, we stand up for the rights of the victim and the victim’s family. Our California nursing home abuse attorneys use our extensive experience and knowledge of elder care law to recover assets and get justice for the victim and the victim’s family.

Pay Attention to Your Loved One’s Condition

Evidence of nursing home neglect and abuse can be elusive, because many nursing home and assisted living residents are not fully aware of what is happening to them. It is up to you to recognize the indicia of possible neglect or abuse of your family member.

Signs of neglect or abuse include:

• Bedsores
• Dehydration
• Overmedication
• Frequent falling out of bed
• Unexplained bruises or scrapes
• Evasive or contradictory answers from care givers and the institution
• Emotional outbursts or emotional withdrawal
• Odd repetitive behavior, such as nail biting or rocking
• And others

If you think that your family member has suffered nursing or assisted living neglect or abuse, or has been the victim of financial fraud, contact Walters & Caietti. Our San Diego nursing home abuse lawyers will fight to get justice and alleviate the victim’s loss.
