The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

The elder abuse lawyers at The Cochran Firm have dedicated themselves to protecting the dignity and legal rights of the elderly. Our lawyers work hard to help nursing home abuse victims receive financial compensation for their physical and psychological injuries suffered at the hands of undertrained, overworked, reckless or careless employees of nursing homes or assisted living centers.

Choosing a nursing home or assisted living center for the care of a family member is a difficult task. You have to put your trust in professional caregivers when you are unable to provide that level of care your family member requires yourself.

Our elder abuse attorneys at The Cochran Firm have encountered various forms of nursing home and assisted living center abuse and neglect including physical, emotional, verbal and sexual abuse, the withholding of food and water, the use of unnecessary physical restraints, over medication, chronic infections, and bed sores. The abuse almost always results in severe consequences for the vulnerable victims.

Please contact the nursing home abuse and neglect attorneys at The Cochran Firm in Atlanta, Georgia today if you suspect your family member has been the victim of abuse and neglect. Do not let another day of abuse and neglect of your loved one go by without taking the steps to hold those responsible legally accountable for their actions.
