Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect Attorneys

At Smith Clinesmith, we focus exclusively on representing individuals and families affected by nursing home abuse and neglect. We understand the trust families place in long-term care facilities, and the devastating consequences when that trust is broken. Our mission is to hold negligent nursing homes/senior care facilities accountable and help families pursue the justice their loved ones deserve.

Many cases of nursing home abuse and neglect are entirely preventable. Pressure injuries, repeated falls, medication errors, dehydration, malnutrition, infections, wandering, physical abuse, and unexplained injuries are often warning signs that a facility failed to provide the level of care residents deserve. When those failures result in serious harm or wrongful death, our attorneys conduct a thorough investigation into staffing levels, medical records, facility policies, inspection reports, and other critical evidence to uncover what happened and identify those responsible.

Our firm is intentionally selective about the cases we accept so we can provide every client with the attention, resources, and advocacy their case deserves. We represent families in complex cases involving catastrophic injuries and wrongful death caused by nursing home negligence, abuse, and neglect.

No Fee Unless We Win*

Seeking answers shouldn't add financial stress during an already difficult time. In most nursing home abuse and neglect cases we accept, Smith Clinesmith works on a contingency fee basis. This means you generally do not pay attorney's fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf.

Every case is unique, and the terms of representation may vary depending on the facts and circumstances of your case. During your free, confidential consultation, we'll explain how our fee structure applies, discuss any case-specific considerations, and answer any questions you may have before you decide to move forward.

If you believe your loved one has suffered abuse or neglect, don't wait. Important evidence can disappear over time, and legal deadlines may affect your ability to pursue a claim. Contact Smith Clinesmith today for a free, confidential case evaluation and learn how we may be able to help protect your family and hold negligent facilities accountable.

*Contingency fee arrangements are subject to the terms of the representation agreement and applicable law. Not every matter qualifies for contingency representation.
