With the aging of the population, nursing homes are a rapidly growing target for lawsuits. Unlike ordinary suits for negligence or malpractice, suits against nursing homes involve application of numerous federal and state statutes and regulations. What also sets these cases apart from traditional torts, and, correspondingly what makes them especially attractive to the plaintiff's bar, is that they present the opportunity for the plaintiff to recover attorney fees and punitive damages. In addition to defending nursing home abuse lawsuits, SKDG provides counsel in preventative measures.
