Fresno Nursing Home Negligence Lawyer
Understanding Nursing Home Abuse
As a person grows older, it may become necessary for them to be supervised by medical professionals 24/7, which is the purpose of a nursing home. When someone places a loved one in a nursing home, it is to ensure that they are given the care and medical treatment that they need to remain healthy. This is not always the kind of treatment they receive, however. The National Center on Elder Abuse provides statistics showing that between one and two million elderly people are abused, neglected or exploited by a caretaker each year. If you, or a loved one, has been abused, neglected or exploited by a caretaker contact a nursing home negligence lawyer at Sawl Law Group.
Types of Nursing Home Negligence
Nursing home negligence comes in many different forms. A patient who is confined to their bed could be left unattended for too long and develop bedsores, or they could fall due to lack of supervision. Wandering and elopement is also a problem when patients are not properly supervised. In other situations, patients could suffer physical or verbal abuse at the hands of the staff, unable to defend themselves. Whatever the situations, nursing home negligence is unacceptable and should be brought to court with the assistance of an experienced Fresno injury attorney.

This is by far the most experienced and professional team of lawyers I've had the pleasure of working with. The staff was amazing, polite and very attentive to all my questions and needs regarding my case. Mr. Taleisnik was very reassuring regarding the best possible outcome for my case. While preparing my case I was kept well informed and was consistently and accurately updated with any new information. Had it not been for Sawl Law Group, I would not have been as far as I am today in my military carrier. I highly recommend this professional and well experienced team of attorney's.- James M.

The Sawl Law Group really, really did an outstanding job for me. They were very invested in my interest to pursue a dismissal for some things I did as a young man. We won the dismissal and my attorney Michelle did a great job and was really caring about my situation. I definitely recommend this group to anyone seeking legal representation!

I retained the office to help me with some very serious charges that would hurt my career and long time goals. I was wrongfully accused of taking materials from a job site. I did not take them, this law office help prove my innocence. They helped me find an investigator for my case. The staff was always ready to help me and willing to go the extra step when I had questions. The Attorney later was able to get my case dismissed. I will forever be grateful to this office who helped me. I recommend Sawl Law Group if you want someone fighting for you.- Preston D.

This was the first time I had needed to hire an attorney. I met with 7 different lawyers before I decided. Right away you can see this is a very professional firm. They did everything they said they would, including working things out so I did not have to appear in court. I am very pleased with the service and the way the case was handled. I would and do recommend them to my friends.

I highly recommend this firm. They are very busy, so sometimes you may need to be persistent in calling them. BUT they are experienced in accidents cases and fight for what money you deserve. They are honest and inform their clients on what to expect. Their lien doctors are excellent. You get all the medical treatment you need.
