Legal Question in Personal Injury in Ohio

Re: wrongful death lawsuit

If the nursing home was negligent or failed to provide proper care, the patient may have a case against the nursing home.

If the improper care or neglect causes the death of the resident, the family may bring a wrongful death action against the home.

In most cases of neglect, you have both a case for the neglect and the wrongful death because the resident suffered due to the neglect before eventualy passing away.

There is a one year time period on the neglect and a two year time limit on the wrongful death.

I have handled a number of these cases over the past 33 years.

If you have questions you should give me a call so that we can discuss this directly. Time may be a factor so I recommend that you talk to an attorney directly as soon as possible. If not me, then someone else! No charge or obligation for the confidential call.
