Connecticut Wrongful Death in Nursing Homes
Last updated on March 22, 2023
Your story is likely very common in Connecticut and around the United States. You graciously cared for your loved one as long as you could, but you were finally unable to keep up with his or her care demands. Wanting to do the right thing, you decided to place them in a nursing home for round-the-clock care administered by compassionate professionals.
But something went terribly wrong. How did this happen? Why did this happen? If you suspect that the answer is negligence, it is important to understand all of the options available to you, including a wrongful death lawsuit to compensate for funeral and burial expenses, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship, love and affection.
