The nursing home knew our client was a fall risk. When she did fall and break her hip, the facility blamed her instead of taking responsibility for failing to protect her.
Firm Partner Joe Landy challenged that defense and secured a $300,000 settlement.
While our client was undergoing surgery, the facility was already preparing its defenses. Fortunately, a family friend who worked in the medical community knew where to turn and referred her to Joe.
A Board-Certified Civil Trial Lawyer with extensive experience handling nursing home injury cases, Joe knew to look closely at what the facility’s own records revealed. Those records proved that the nursing home had failed to follow routine fall precautions, the very precautions that would have prevented our client’s fall.
Joe used the facility’s own documentation to hold it accountable. His work in this case reflects the experience, preparation and determination that has earned him a reputation as a leading advocate for nursing home residents and their families.
