Frequently Asked Questions

What are signs of nursing home neglect?

Unexplained injuries, bedsores, weight loss, poor hygiene and sudden changes in mood or health.

What should I do if I suspect abuse?

Report it to the facility and your state agency, document what you see, and talk to a lawyer.

How much does a personal injury lawyer in Berkeley cost?

Usually nothing up front. Most work on contingency — a percentage of your settlement or verdict — so you pay only if you recover money.

Should I talk to the insurance company?

Be careful. Don't give a recorded statement or sign anything before talking to a lawyer — early statements are often used to reduce claims.

Is there a deadline to file?

Yes. Every state has a statute of limitations, often two to three years from the injury, and sometimes shorter. Talk to a lawyer early.
