Mesothelioma & Asbestos

The number of people diagnosed with asbestos caused diseases in the U.S. continues to increase. Experts believe 60,000 mesothelioma deaths will occur between 2010 and 2030.

Industrial Accidents

Work related injuries harm up to 14 million people annually, with harms including traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, amputations, burns, and electrocutions. Around 20,000 to 60,000 workers die each year from accidents, toxins, and violence at their jobs.

Product Defects

Millions of consumers and workers are injured each year because of defective products. Defects can occur when a product is designed poorly, when a product is manufactured in a manner that differs from the intended design, or when the product does not contain proper warnings or instructions. Defects can occur in automobiles, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, construction equipment, toys, and other goods.

Nursing Home Abuse

Between 1.5 and 2 million elderly reside in nursing home facilities, with studies revealing that 44% have suffered some form of abuse. Many believe the actual number of residents suffering abuse is much higher. Neglect and abuse may result in serious emotional, physical, and financial harm

Nursing Home Abuse

 

 

 

 

In 2000, 25 million elderly lived in the United States.  The US Census Bureau projects this number will exceed 54 million by 2020.  More than two out of every five Americans requires long-term care at some point, which may include nursing home facilities.  

All nursing homes that participate in Medicare or Medicaid must be certified for adherence to specified Federal requirements.  When a nursing home facility fails to meet any of these requirements, surveyors cite a deficiency.  Government data reveals that the vast majority of certified nursing homes are cited for deficiencies in their operation.  For-profit nursing homes generally receive more citations than not-for-profit facilities.  Click here for Nursing Home Information regarding specific California and Wisconsin nursing homes. 

As one of the nation’s leading plaintiffs’ firms, Paul & Hanley employs experienced nursing home abuse attorneys and staff dedicated to helping those injured through the fault of others’ indifference and negligence.  Our attorneys have the knowledge, experience, and resources necessary with which to successfully pursue cases involving nursing home abuse.

There are many facilities caring for the elderly that provide excellent care.  Tragically, some nursing home residents are neglected and abused, resulting in injuries and death.   If you or a loved one have faced such neglect and abuse, contact us for a free consultation regarding your legal rights.   If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 or the local police for immediate help.
