R. Steven Baker, R.N., J. D. is a practicing attorney and registered nurse in the State of Alabama and has been serving nursing home patients and their loved ones since 1995.  He is the founding member of the Nursing Home Law Group, PC in Birmingham, Alabama, and is committed to helping you and your loved one understand your legal rights regarding nursing home abuse. 

Entering a nursing home shouldn’t include leaving behind your basic human rights. Nursing homes are supposed to protect residents from harm, but often a gap exists between the legal standards and the reality of nursing home performance.  Poor enforcement and inadequate penalties compound the problem.  The Nursing Home Law Group has the education and experience necessary to help you recover loss due to the negligence and abuse of your loved one. 

Understanding your legal rights can help you avoid difficulties for your loved one living in a nursing home. Violations that jeopardize nursing home residents include bedsores, medication errors, malnutrition, dehydration, broken bones, falls, wrongful death, abuse, and neglect. A nursing home abuse lawyer can help explain your legal rights and if necessary, bring those responsible to account and to ensure deserved compensation should a lawsuit be necessary.

If you suspect that a loved one is being harmed, mistreated, or abused as a result of nursing home abuse or negligence, retain the professional services of a nursing home abuse attorney at Nursing Home Law Group, P.C., who can confront those responsible in a court of law and get the justice and compensation that you deserve.   Don’t let your family be a victim twice.  Call us today for a free consultation.
