Here at Lanzone Morgan, we’ve been doing nursing home cases for 16 years, just at Lanzone Morgan. Prior to that, I have almost another 10 years experience doing nursing home cases. One of my first cases was in San Francisco. It was a bad case of a terrible pressure sore of an elderly gentleman and the nursing home never told the family about the bed sore. Until it was too late, and it was about the size of a dinner plate on his back. I met with this family, talked to them, heard their story, and agreed to take their case. I love taking cases in San Francisco, because the people of San Francisco really care about people, they care about the elderly population, and they have sympathy.
I remember in that case, specifically, the defense attorney told me your client was elderly and was the term they used circling the drain. This person was about to die. Why is this case worth anything? And I said, well, let’s let the people of San Francisco decide if he was circling the drain, and that was justification for neglecting him and letting him get a bed sore, the size of a dinner plate.
We settled that case before trial, but I will always remember that case. Because I felt I really wanted to go to trial and see what a jury would have done with that. And I could see at the end of the case that the defense really appreciated that the people of San Francisco were not going to let this corporation get away with neglecting this elderly man. If you have a case in San Francisco, please call Lanzone Morgan. We’d be happy to look at it.
