Greenville & Spartanburg Nursing Home Neglect Attorneys

Serving Upstate South Carolina

Nursing homes are supposed to take care of our parents, grandparents, and other loved ones. But often, the owners of homes cut corners on staff and other expenses and end up causing tragic neglect. Sometimes workers end up blatantly abusing residents.

The Greenville nursing home neglect attorneys of The Hawkins Law Firm are proud to help families get justice after an incident of elder abuse or neglect. If you believe you have a case, our lawyers will meet with you free of charge to discuss what happened. If we can take your case, we will do all later work on contingency, charging no attorneys' fees until you get a verdict or settlement.

Types of Nursing Home Neglect

It is shocking to discover how common elder abuse and neglect are in some nursing homes. Unfortunately, our attorneys have spoken to many people whose family members have had terrible injustices against senior citizens, most often just for the sake of saving a few dollars. We can handle cases involving any of the issues involved in nursing home litigation, such as:

• Bed sores (a.k.a. pressure sores or decubitus ulcers)
• Failure to monitor
• Failure to provide food or water
• Medication errors
• Medical errors (see also Medical Malpractice)
• Falls, broken bones
• Physical abuse
• Sexual abuse

When people come to our law firm needing help, we take them in with open arms. Our attorneys and staff understand how upsetting it can be to see your beloved relative abused and neglected, and we will show you and your loved ones compassion while fighting hard on your behalf. A sizable settlements or verdict will not only pay for future treatments and compensate for pain and suffering -- it will also make the nursing home think twice about ever mistreating another resident.
