Nursing Home Facility and Third Party Tactics to Limit Compensation

The biggest tactic we see from the defendants in these cases are delays, delays, delays, delays. So, if we request a deposition, if we request written discovery, they’ll attempt to delay things and push things out. Cases essentially have limited lifespans.

The more delays you have to deal with, the more difficult that is.
