Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect

Nursing homes may not retaliate against a resident, family member or employee who makes a complaint. Talk To an Attorney.

If a loved one is injured or dies as a result of nursing home abuse and/or neglect, Texas law allows you or your family to file a private lawsuit against the nursing home for claims resulting from negligence and/or wrongful death.

Do not procrastinate. Memories fade, evidence such as medical/nursing records can be altered, destroyed or lost. Bad situations rarely improve on their own. Act now (not a month or a year from now) to protect yourself, your loved ones and your rights.
