I specialize in holding nursing homes and assisted living facilities accountable for the abuse and neglect of their residents. Bedsores, falls, malnutrition, dehydration and wrongful death are just some of the warning signs of abuse and neglect. I have a long, proven track record of pursing justice for victims of abuse and neglect, including a $6,000, verdict, the largest of its kind in Pennsylvania.
