Sexual Assault

Nassau and Suffolk County Nursing Home Sexual Abuse Lawyers

Any sexual assault is a shocking and terrible occurrence. However, it is almost unimaginable in a civilized society that a defenseless nursing home patient could be subjected to the brutality of a sexual assault.

Tragically, some nursing home patients are the victims of sexual assault. When such attacks occur, they are often committed by other patients, but on some occasions the assailant is a nursing home staff member. In either case, the nursing home may be liable to pay damages to the assault victim.

Nursing Home Assault Claims

Nursing home facilities are generally responsible for the acts of their employees. They are also responsible to protect nursing home patients from other potentially dangerous patients. If your parent, sibling or other family member has been the victim of a sexual assault at a nursing home, you should consult with an experienced personal injury attorney who can help advise you about your legal rights.
