If a loved one has experienced abuse or neglect in a nursing home, contact our dedicated New York nursing home abuse lawyer. We are committed to protecting the rights of vulnerable nursing home residents.
Our experienced team at Duffy & Duffy provides both compassionate support and strong legal representation. We help families secure the compensation their loved ones deserve and hold licensed care facilities accountable for failing to provide the expected standard of care.
If the home and its workers fail to live up to the standard of care, they are likely to be legally liable for any injuries that result from their negligence. The victim has a right to sue the home and to recoup damages covering medical costs, pain and suffering, and any other losses.
We handle cases involving physical, emotional, and financial abuse, and we pursue all available legal remedies, including compensation for medical costs and pain and suffering. In cases of gross negligence, we also seek punitive damages.
If your family has been affected, contact our nursing home abuse attorneys in New York for a free consultation. Your loved one deserves justice and protection.
Duffy & Duffy successfully secured a two million dollar settlement for the family of a man in New York City who suffered a stage-IV bed sore prior to his death while in a Brooklyn nursing home.
The family of the man claimed that their loved one’s bedsore was caused by the nursing home’s failure to routinely reposition the man. This, they claimed, was a departure from the standard of care that is to be expected in nursing home facilities, and constituted professional negligence and malpractice. The jury agreed with the plaintiffs, finding that the nursing home was negligent in providing the elderly man care. In the end, the jury awarded the man’s family $2 million, all of which was awarded for the man’s pain and suffering.
This case highlights the potential consequences of nursing home negligence and the essential role of legal recourse in holding healthcare providers accountable. Duffy & Duffy’s legal expertise and determination were pivotal in navigating these complex medical and legal issues to achieve justice for the affected family.
While this outcome cannot undo the harm suffered by the man or his family, it offers a measure of justice and financial support for their long-term future. Duffy & Duffy’s success in this case demonstrates their commitment to advocating for victims of medical malpractice and ensuring accountability within the healthcare system.
Dear Duffy and Duffy, This is a note of appreciation for all you have done to win my case. You probably receive little correspondence after the final check has been received by your clients, so I want you to know what a blessing you all have been to my life. Winning the case has replaced the lost income and retirement benefits. It has allowed me to go to specialized doctors who often don’t take insurance. It has also allowed me to pay for medications and supplements that aren’t covered by insurance. From the very first meeting with you, I was treated with respect and compassion. The staff was always professional and dedicated. We are very grateful and thankful to your firm for all the effort and care you took to present and win my case.
I lost my dear mother due to the negligence of medical professionals, but thanks to the efforts of my attorneys at Duffy & Duffy, I was able to receive a settlement of $500,000. They truly fight for those who have been injured!
I was the victim of a fall because of the failure of a property owner to properly remove snow and ice. I suffered multiple injuries with surgeries. My life was turned upside down. Fortunately, I retained the services of Duffy & Duffy who through their attorneys, especially Frank Torres, and excellent support staff vigorously and expertly fought on my behalf achieving a settlement of $450,000. I would recommend them to anyone who has been injured because of someone’s negligence. You will be in very good hands!
