Trial Lawyers for Assisted Living Facility Injury Actions
California - Washington - Arizona - Nationwide
At The Garcia Law Firm, with locations in California, Washington and Arizona, we represent the victims of elder abuse and neglect. Our goal is to help clients by holding assisted living facilities accountable for the negligence and abuse that leads to injuries like bed sores, malnutrition and dehydration, fractures, brain injuries and even wrongful death.
When an elderly or disabled person needs more care than a family can give, families are often forced to rely on an assisted living facility. Assisted living facilities (sometimes called residential care facilities) are unlicensed, non-medical facilities that provide services for elderly residents. Families often trust them because they expect that assisted living facility care is better – after all, these facilities promise high-quality, trained care and guidance with daily living.
Sadly, this care is not always given. Each year, many elderly residents become the victims of abuse and neglect in assisted living facilities. At The Garcia Law Firm, we represent the victims of assisted living facility injuries related to many different circumstances:
- Failure to monitor residents
- Failure to treat illnesses and infections
- Burns and scalding
- Severe abuse
- Repeated falls
Our law firm has achieved a record of success in lawsuits involving victims of elder abuse and neglect at assisted living facilities. These include multi-million dollar jury verdicts and settlements on behalf of elderly patients and their families. Our in-depth knowledge of the law on assisted living facilities is reflected in the fact that our founding attorney, Stephen Garcia, has participated in drafting laws and model jury instructions regarding assisted living facilities in California.
