We Have Recovered Compensation From Morningside Assisted Living Facilities for Mistreating Elderly Residents

Your loved one’s case will not be the first time Morningside Assisted Living Facilities have faced allegations of negligence. The fact that there have been previous claims of mistreatment against this defendant can constitute a pattern.

If your loved one has experienced neglect, abuse, financial exploitation, or another type of mistreatment in a Morningside Assisted Living Facility, it may indicate that:

  • Morningside Assisted Living Facilities lack the necessary means of monitoring employees.
  • Morningside Assisted Living Facilities are not adequately screening employees before hiring them.

There is never an excuse for elder abuse. If Morningside Assisted Living Facilities has allowed your loved one to suffer mistreatment, we’ll work to hold them accountable.

Recoverable damages vary from one victim of elder mistreatment to the next. As your loved one’s attorneys, we’ll conduct a detailed investigation of their damages. We’ll speak with you, your loved one, their doctors, and any other party with knowledge of their losses.

In handling other cases like your loved ones, we’ve seen clients with:

  • Exorbitant medical costs: Elder abuse and neglect can cause serious injuries. Your loved one may need extensive and costly care for their physical injuries. Being elderly, it may take longer for your loved one to recover, contributing to high medical costs.
  • Severe pain and suffering: A caregiver or other party that violates your loved one’s trust can cause great emotional and psychological pain. Your loved one may also suffer pain from injuries. These various types of pain and suffering may be recoverable.
  • Costs for relocating to a new facility: Your loved one may choose to move out of the Morningside facility that mistreated them—a completely reasonable response. Morningside Assisted Living Facilities may need to cover all moving-related expenses. Your loved one may also get reimbursement for their time in the Morningside facility.
  • Fatal injuries: When elder abuse or neglect proves fatal, surviving loved ones may pursue a wrongful death claim. We’ll help you pursue coverage of any damages caused by a loved one’s wrongful death.
