Injuries to the Elderly
Representing the Elderly in Personal Injury and Nursing Home Neglect Cases
The elderly are among the most vulnerable members of society; a minor accident for a younger person might have very serious repercussions for an older individual. A fall in a store or a minor car accident can be far more devastating for the elderly than for a younger person.
At the law firm of Francis X. Dorrity Law Offices, we have been advocating for the rights of injured and disabled elderly individuals throughout New Jersey, New York and the metropolitan area for over 35 years. From our office in Jersey City, we help injured people recover the money damages for their medical costs, pain and suffering, and other out of pocket expenses.
Fighting for the Rights of Injured Elderly People
Accidents can happen just about anywhere, but for the elderly the consequences can be even more serious. A simple broken bone can lead to medical complications that can be fatal for the elderly. That is why it is so important to seek the advice of an experienced personal injury lawyer who is capable of standing up and fighting for you.
Our firm focuses its practice exclusively in the areas of personal injury, workers' compensation and medical negligence claims. We will represent you in personal injury and wrongful death claims related to the following:
- Adult daycare facilities
- Nursing home neglect and abuse
- Hospices
- Injuries at home
- Slip and falls
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Bus accidents
