There is an old saying that Father Time is undefeated. No matter how well we take care of ourselves or keep in shape, Father Time eventually takes his toll on all of us. Unfortunately, most learn this lesson the hard way when the people who took care of us all our lives reach an advanced age and need us to care for them.
Often, loved ones require more care than we can provide, and we make the difficult decision to trust their care to a nursing home. Sadly, the standard of care in a nursing home sometimes falls dramatically short of our expectations. Inadequate care in nursing homes can even lead to the wrongful death of a loved one. If you’re dealing with this tragedy, you may need a Marion nursing home wrongful death lawyer with The Fitch Law Firm LLC to seek justice for you.

We can sit down with you and consult about the facts in your case before assessing its potential compensation. The section above details some of the possible damages we may seek in your case.

The value of your case depends on the severity of the abuse your loved one suffered and the financial and emotional hardship their wrongful death has caused you. As a general rule, the worse the abuse was and the higher your medical bills are, the higher the compensation may be for your case.
