Admitting a family member into a nursing home is a very difficult decision. When one is admitted he or she and their family place a great deal of trust in the employees and agents of the home. When abuse or neglect occurs in the nursing home it can have a devastating impact on the patient and the family. If abuse and/or neglect is suspected an experienced attorney should be contacted immediately. Every case is different. Contact our firm for a free consultation. The statute of limitation for a negligence action is 3 years. If medical malpractice is involved then the statute of limitations in general is two years of the date of the negligent act. However there are complex procedural requirements which effectively shorten this limitation period.
