Wrongful Death Lawsuit Claims Nursing Home Negligence

A Texas nursing home is accused of negligence in the death of a 78-year-old resident. According to a wrongful death lawsuit, the woman was heard yelling for help and found on the floor next to her bed at Regent Care Center. The suit claims that the woman was “neurologically alert, coherent and in severe pain” when she was placed back in her bed. She was later found non-responsive and taken to the hospital where she died from bleeding and head trauma.

When placing a loved one in the care of a nursing home, it is expected that the resident will receive quality care. Unfortunately, nursing home negligence and abuse are all too common.

If you or a loved one suffered physical or emotional injuries because an assisted living facility or nursing home was negligent or failed to fulfill its care obligations to you and your family, you may have grounds for a nursing home negligence case. Choosing the right attorney is a vitally important decision.

Jeep Cherokee under Investigation after Fiery Auto Accident

A four-vehicle auto accident on Interstate 4 in Orlando has left one man dead and another critically injured. The accident occurred when the 31-year-old driver of the SUV failed to notice stopped traffic and slammed into a 2007 Jeep Cherokee; both vehicles went up in flames. The Jeep was pushed into a vehicle in front of it, which hit another vehicle. Florida state troopers said the passenger of the Cherokee was trapped and burned beyond recognition; the driver is listed in critical condition with burns. The driver of the SUV suffered minor injuries. It is unknown whether the driver of the SUV was distracted or tired, but speed does appear to be a factor. The accident is still under investigation.

In August 2010, NHTSA began looking into all 1993 – 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee's after the Center for Auto Safety petitioned for a recall. It claimed the model is more likely to catch fire when struck from behind and that there have been hundreds of accidents and deaths when the vehicle is hit from behind due to the location of the fuel tank. The Chrysler Group concluded that the vehicles are neither defective nor do their fuel systems pose an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety in rear impact collisions. This investigation is currently ongoing.

Thousands of people are seriously injured or killed each year in auto accidents as a result of a negligent driver, auto manufacturer, or a combination. Some manufacturer defects cause accidents while others may worsen an accidental injury. In this auto accident, the victims may have suffered minor injuries as a result of the collision alone, but due to the fuel tank explosion one man is dead and another fighting for his life.

Recalls before injuries occur are important pro-safety measures. So why do automakers wait for something serious to happen before considering corrective action? Timely and appropriate recalls save lives and we encourage automakers to issue them promptly and responsibly. However, if automakers are still willing to risk lives to save money, that behavior should be exposed, and perpetrators made to pay, both civilly and criminally.

The family of the deceased may consider a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver of the SUV and Chrysler. If so, it is important to contact an experienced auto accident attorney who specializes in similar cases. In the meantime, the families of both victims may be suffering from financial distress associated with medical and funeral expenses; they may want to consider lawsuit funding.

If you need financial assistance until your lawsuit settles, Lawsuit Financial may be able to help you. Lawsuit Financial is your auto accident lawsuit funding specialist. We provide lawsuit funding to help cover medical expenses, household bills, lost income, and funeral expenses. Do not give in to corporate and insurance tactics pressuring you to settle for less.

Understanding Worker's Compensation Law

All too often, many accidents occur on-the-job. When this happens, the first step is to complete a worker's compensation claim. Sometimes, the accidents are mild enough that the worker will be able to return to his/her job in a few days. However, some injuries could cause an employee to be out of work for several weeks or even months. Other injuries are long term and can last a lifetime, thus reducing the chance of someone being able to maintain gainful employment. For example, a back injury to a construction workers could mean the injured person can no longer work in the same capacity as before the accident. During the time out of work, the employee may be able to claim and receive worker's compensation benefits.

Workers’ compensation does not excuse the employer’s gross negligence; it also does not excuse the negligence of a third party. Thus, for example, if you are in an automobile accident while driving for your company and the driver of the opposite vehicle is the at-fault driver, you may collect workers’ compensation from your employer and you may pursue a lawsuit against the at-fault driver. If your injury was caused by defective equipment on the job, you may collect workers’ compensation and you may pursue a lawsuit against the faulty equipment manufacturer. Thus, you can sue a negligent third party even though you are entitled to collect or are collecting workers' compensation benefits. In most states, you will be obligated to reimburse portions of your workers compensation benefits if you collect substantial sums from a third party, arising out of the same accident. But, there may be a difference, often a substantial increase, over the amount paid by a workers' compensation carrier.

Everyone has the right to a safe workplace and working conditions that don’t pose a risk of serious injury or death. Workplace safety actually ranks more important than pay and benefits. In cases with severe and long lasting injuries, the compensation might not be enough to cover all of the expenses, and it may not be enough to get one through tough times. Sometimes, people are unable to receive their benefits for one reason or another, and this can place them under a huge financial burden. In times such as this, it's important to seek experienced legal counsel. Attorneys who have experience in this area of the law will be able to help you achieve a fair settlement.

Worker's compensation law is confusing for those who don't have experience and knowledge in the area, and you do not want to trust your case to anyone but the best in the field. When an injured party has a qualified attorney working with them, they will be able to rest easy knowing that they have someone working to help them get the compensation they deserve.

Types of Personal Injury Claims

Personal injury claims are among the most common lawsuits filed in the United States each year, encompassing far-reaching and often vastly different types of accidents and injuries. One of the commonalities is that most often these types of injuries are not only preventable, but they result in some form of medical attention.

An injured victim may file a claim when injuries are the result of someone else’s negligence. Following are some of the most common types of personal injury cases.

Auto accidents: If you have been involved in an auto accident at no fault of your own, you may have a personal injury claim. The accident could be due to the negligence of another driver, a manufacturer defect, or a defect in the road. Injuries sustained can lead to expensive medical bills, therapy, and/or long-term treatment and care.

Medical Malpractice: Negligence by medical practitioners can lead to serious injury and even death. Talking to an experienced attorney who specializes in medical malpractice cases can help determine your rights and seek fair compensation for your injuries or loss.

Workplace Injuries: Personal injuries sustained at work can vary widely - slip and falls, equipment failure, improper training, poor quality control procedures, or inadequate policies and procedures. Injuries can range from mild to severe, and in some cases, death.

Assault: In addition to criminal charges filed in an assault case, it is possible to file a personal injury claim. Again, it is important to talk to an experienced attorney.

Product Liability: Thousands of injuries occur every year as a result of a defective product or equipment. Product liability lawsuits provide victims with compensation for death or injuries sustained. A lawsuit is a means to make products safer.

No matter the type of personal injury claim, it is always important to speak with a qualified personal injury lawyer for guidance. These lawsuits can be complicated and take years to resolve. Time is your enemy if you have mounting medical bills, funeral expenses, and loss of wages.

Lawsuit Financial can assist with legal financial assistance throughout the litigation process. Lawsuit funding is often the answer to difficult situations where a family or individual is struggling to make ends meet without sufficient funds to handle unexpected medical bills, funeral expenses, or ordinary living expenses. Our lawsuit cash advances help a plaintiff even the odds; the money provides legal staying power to fight powerful corporations and insurance companies and achieve the best possible result without worrying about your bills. With a lawsuit cash advance, the repayment is contingent on the outcome of the lawsuit. That means if the plaintiff loses their case, they do not have to pay the money back. After completing an application, a case can be evaluated and if approved, funds can be wired into your account within 24-48 hours. Why struggle any longer? The call is free; the advice is priceless.

Lawsuit Financial Brings Holiday Cheer to Cash-Strapped Plaintiffs

Insurance companies are very wealthy and have the financial resources to litigate a case to the very end. They will oftentimes intentionally deny, delay, and defend cases from settling in hopes the plaintiff will settle for less than fair compensation because of financial constraints. And, in today’s economy, it’s no secret that many people are strapped for cash. Because they need money right now, they are willing to forego a potentially larger settlement in order to have immediate cash.

If you are unfortunate enough to be the victim of someone else's negligence, paying the bills may be even tougher, especially with the holidays approaching. For plaintiffs in the midst of litigation, lawsuit funding can be a welcomed savior.

Lawsuit Financial, a pro-justice litigation funding company, is a leader in the lawsuit funding industry. We believe being forced to settle for less compensation because you are in a financial bind is not seeking justice and could result in losing thousands or even millions of dollars of fair compensation.

Lawsuit funding can dramatically change the outcome of a plaintiff’s settlement because litigation funding levels the playing field. The plaintiff is more financially stable to allow his/her attorney time to negotiate fair compensation. Lawsuit funding is a non-recourse “lawsuit loan” meaning the plaintiff only repays the cash advance if, and when, he/she wins their case. If you lose your lawsuit case, you owe nothing to the lawsuit funding company that provided you the cash advance. Therefore, lawsuit funding can be a great risk free option for plaintiffs who can’t afford to hold out long enough for a fair settlement offer. There are no upfront fees or monthly payments with Lawsuit Financial and we offer a quick turnaround time; 24 – 48 hours.

If you are not in the financial position to wait years before compensation is paid, but are worried how to survive this holiday season, lawsuit funding could be a viable option and it can make a difference in your financial staying power. So, don’t let the holidays add more stress to you already difficult times. Call or visit us online for a free, no-obligation consultation. Lawsuit Financial is here to assist you this holiday season.

Slip and Fall Injuries are Dangerous and Can Occur Anywhere

A slip and fall accident doesn't always sound as dangerous and problematic as the injuries that come with them. In many cases, the fall results in some very serious injuries that will need medical attention.

Some of the types of physical damage that someone may incur during a slip and fall accident include injuries to the spine, broken bones, bruising and soft tissue damage, internal injuries, and even post traumatic stress. While these types of injuries may be different, they all have one thing in common; they require medical attention.

What Causes Slip and Fall Injuries?

There are an unlimited number of ways someone could be injured from a slip and fall accident. In some instances, the negligence may be on the part of the person who fell, but that's not always the case.

One of the most common causes of slip and fall accidents is a failure of the owner to properly maintain the premise. Whether a private home, office complex, or retail establishment, the owner needs provide safe conditions for anyone who enters the premise. Failure to do so may cause unsafe conditions that can lead to serious falls and other injuries.

Slip and fall accidents can also be the result of a poorly constructed building. If there is a construction or design flaw in the building, often times they are not apparent until someone has an accident.

Improper lighting can also lead to a slip and fall accident. Property owners may be liable if poor lighting causes someone to slip and fall on their property.

Wet surfaces, broken areas in pavement and on sidewalks, and frayed or improperly installed carpet can cause a slip and fall accident as well.

If you've suffered from a slip and fall accident and believe it is due to someone else’s negligence, you may be able to file a slip and fall lawsuit for damages. It is important to speak to an attorney who can evaluate your case and discuss your options.

Proving negligence in a slip and fall accident is, sometimes, more difficult than it might otherwise seem. Unfortunately, business owners and their insurance companies work every angle to avoid paying and "buy" as much time as possible; a lawsuit is almost always required and then the insurance company will delay again. Before becoming discouraged about your financial situation, call Lawsuit Financial to learn about our litigation funding services and how we might help you.

Lawsuit funding is a service that provides some financial relief to plaintiffs faced with financial difficulties. Assistance comes in the form of a lawsuit cash advance, money that is advanced in anticipation of a potential settlement or verdict. It should be used carefully, for serious needs, like mortgage or rent payments, car payments or medical expenses. A “lawsuit loan” would help pay medical expenses right away and take care of other important bills like the mortgage and other financial commitments.

Legal funding is provided based on the merits of your case, through information provided by your attorney. Whether you have good or bad credit, whether or not you have a job, whether you own a home or not, none of this matters. All that Lawsuit Financial cares about is whether you have a pending lawsuit being handled by a competent lawyer. If you win the case, you will pay us our principal and profit; if you lose your case, our money is free; keep it with our compliments.

Applying for litigation funding is quick and easy and can be done online or on the phone. Legal finance, if approved, will arrive within 24-48 hours. Lawsuit funding would allow the plaintiff to wait for justice and not take too little compensation too soon in the legal process. Call or visit us online to discuss litigation funding for your slip and fall case or any other type of personal injury case.

Driving Under the Influence Kills Two Resulting in Three Lawsuits

A three-vehicle auto accident in October 2010 that killed two has led to three lawsuits. A twenty-seven year old man driving a Chevy pick-up truck crossed the center line and sideswiped a Ford pick-up truck before hitting a Honda Civic head-on. The driver of the Honda and the front seat passenger died at the scene; two backseat passengers suffered serious injuries. Blood tests showed the driver of the Chevy pick-up had Xanax and alcohol in his system; he pleading guilty and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

The lawsuits filed against Bollinger Shipyards, the driver of the Ford pick-up, and the family of the drugged driver, are asking for unspecified monetary damages. The facts in the lawsuit are:

• Earlier in the day the driver of the Chevy truck was with a friend who was arrested on DWI charges.
• He was returning from posting bond for his friend when the fatal accident occurred, he was returning from posting bond for that friend.

One lawsuit alleges that both men had been given beer by their supervisor for working overnight. The lawsuit said this is “a known and customary practice at Bollinger.” Another suit states that the negligent driver’s family allowed him to get behind the wheel knowing he was impaired. The suit against the driver of the Ford pick-up truck alleges that the he “did not take proper evasive action to avoid a collision between his vehicle and the vehicle driven by the DUI driver despite having ample time, opportunity, and warning of the upcoming dangerous situation.”

Unfortunately, the families who lost a loved one and those victims who were seriously injured may never recover full compensation; the driver of the Chevy pick-up truck was driving on a suspended license and had no insurance. The family’s only attempt at collecting from him will be from future earnings. Is Bollinger responsible for its employees? They may have provided beer, but did are they responsible if employees drink and then get behind the wheel? What about the driver of the Ford pick-up?

There are many unanswered questions in this fatal auto accident. It may take years to reach a resolution. In the meantime, the victims may be suffering from financial distress. This is not uncommon since insurance companies do everything in their power to delay resolving the case and paying settlements, verdicts or judgments. Auto accident lawsuit funding is available to victims and is provided to help a grieving family cover medical expenses, household bills, lost income, and funeral expenses. Do not give in to corporate tactics pressuring you to settle for less.

Halloween Night Leaves Haunting Memories for One Family

Halloween has come and gone; much of the candy probably has too, but for one family the memories will last forever. Thirteen-year-old Jayden was trick-or treating with his stepbrother when he was struck by a vehicle driven by an elderly woman. According to police, it appears that the woman just didn’t see the teen; negligence such as distracted driving did not seem to be a factor.

The boy suffered several fractures in his skull, and has bleeding on the brain. He also suffered a fractured pelvis and broke his leg in two places. Jayden recently slipped into a coma and doctors say they have done all they can for him. Hospital bills are mounting at $10,000 per day. The family has a fund set up at America First Credit Union for anyone who wants to donate and help the family pay the mounting medical bills.

It is uncertain whether charges will be filed against the driver or if a lawsuit will be pursued. What is certain is the emotional rollercoaster for this family. The family is already faced with mounting medical bills. If the child survives, he will undoubtedly face a long road to recovery including on-going medical care; he may even need round-the-clock care. If he does not come out of the coma and dies, the family will be faced with funeral expenses and the additional pain and suffering as a result of their loss.

If a lawsuit is pursued, the family can include medical expenses, loss of income due to caring for the childe, funeral expenses, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship. Only an experienced attorney can tell whether the family has a right to compensation. If an attorney takes this case and files a lawsuit, lawsuit funding may be available to assist the family through the difficult financial times.

Lawsuit Financial provides legal finance assistance to injury victims and their families. We have helped many families, through difficult times, following a tragic loss. We understand the difficulties they are facing; we are sensitive to their concerns. Don't settle your valuable case too early for too little due to financial difficulties.

Wrongful Death Lawsuit Filed by the Estate of a Mentally Retarded Elderly Man

The parent company of Brightmoor Nursing Center in North Carolina is being sued for the wrongful death of a patient of nine years. The administrator for the estate of the 73-year-old man claims in the suit that Brightmoor employees were negligent in the death of her uncle in 2009. She alleges that the man died two days after he was dropped in the shower by a certified nursing assistant. The defendant denies the allegations.

The man was taken to an area hospital with a hip fracture at which time the hospital staff discovered he had a massive urinary tract infection not identified at the nursing home.

The man suffered from mental retardation and was wheelchair bound; he was assessed as being a fall risk when he was first entered the nursing home in 2000. His bed was to be set on the lowest level at all times, a shower chair was to be used and a gait belt for moving him. The suit alleges that not all necessary precautions were in place at the time of the man’s death and there was not adequate staffing or employee training.

When placing a loved one in the care of a nursing home, it is expected that the resident will receive quality care. Unfortunately, negligence and abuse in this setting are all too common. Nursing home neglect and abuse can be physical, mental, or emotional. Often, the abuse or neglect continues undetected because not all elderly or infirm persons are able to easily communicate. Also, some have medical conditions that make them especially vulnerable to slip and falls accidents, broken bones, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, hip fractures, and other injuries.

If you believe that a loved one may be the victim of nursing home neglect or abuse, you may be entitled to compensation. Choosing the right attorney is a vitally important decision. If you do not know an attorney who specializes in nursing home abuse, Lawsuit Financial has excellent legal referral sources all over the country and our professional staff will locate you a top-notch legal specialist, in your city or state, within 24-48 hours. This is a free service for injury victims and their family members.

Lawsuit Financial will also devise a legal finance plan to assist victims and family members through the difficult financial issues facing them. Victims do not want to conduct settlement negotiations when they are struggling, financially. If they do, they will, almost always, accept an offer that is less than full case value. Strategic lawsuit funding can often be the difference between a mediocre settlement and a large, injury appropriate, settlement. Leverage Lawsuit Financial’s money to hold out for full case value.

Lawsuit Claims Lack of Staff and Training Caused Wrongful Death

A $3.8 million lawsuit has been filed against a Virginia assisted living facility for negligence in a man's death two years ago. The lawsuit alleges that the defendant condoned inadequate staffing levels to increase profits.

The victim was admitted into the Willows facility in June 2008 after suffering from a fall. While at the facility, family members said he showed signs of deterioration in his ability to care for himself. The lawsuit states that despite changes in his condition, the medical staff failed to reassess his medical needs and failed to communicate with the patient’s family and physician. The suit alleges that he fell numerous times and his diet was not properly monitored while under the facility’s care. Eleven days before his death, the patient was transported to the hospital where doctors diagnosed him with an acute respiratory infection, a urinary tract infection and a pressure ulcer on his right, lateral heel. The lawsuit contends that he was “completely debilitated and bedridden, had numerous bruises, skin tears, chipped teeth, and extremely dirty teeth and gums.” Although the patient suffered from dementia, insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus, osteoporosis, and high blood pressure, among other conditions, the suit states that the defendant could have prevented most of the injuries sustained if the facility had adequately staffed and trained employees.

When we place a loved one in a nursing home or assisted living facility, we expect them to be cared for and protected. Alzheimer’s and dementia patients require extra care because they tend to wander, become disoriented, and lost. When we hear stories like this, it makes us all wonder about the safety of our aging loved ones.

I understand that taking care of elderly people can be a very tough job. I understand that not many of us can do what these workers do for a living. Although the vast majority of senior health care workers are dedicated care givers, incidents of abuse in nursing homes and assisted living facilities continue to occur. When neglect or abuse occurs, it can lead to more serious forms of illnesses, diseases and medical conditions. Bed sores are a typical example of conditions that are relatively easy to prevent but far too common in many assisted living facilities.

Agencies like Citizens for Better Care, and others, have been created to combat this type of neglect by reporting about and punishing those caregivers and nursing homes that operate below acceptable standards. The best deterrent, however, remains the ability to pursue litigation against a negligent caregiver or nursing center.

Anytime someone loses a loved one, it is devastating both emotionally and mentally. It may be shattering financially, as well. The financial and emotional roller coaster of a lawsuit is equally as painful as the loss. If you or a loved one suffered physical or emotional injuries because an assisted living facility or nursing home was negligent or failed to fulfill its care obligations to you and your family, you may have grounds for a nursing home negligence case.

If you are seeking lawsuit funding for a nursing home abuse or negligence case, begin by completing a lawsuit funding application. Lawsuit Financial provides non-recourse funding to help financially strapped plaintiffs during their pending lawsuit. We offer a quick and easy approval process - less than 48 hours. There are no upfront fees, monthly payments, credit checks or employment verifications. Because it is a non-recourse cash advance, if you lose your case you owe nothing. It really is a risk-free option for plaintiffs.
