Elder Abuse Attorney
Houston Nursing Home Neglect Lawyer.
Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Cases in Texas
Families place a great deal of trust in nursing homes and long-term care facilities to properly care for elderly loved ones. When that trust is ignored because of understaffing, poor supervision, neglect, or abuse, the consequences can be serious and, in some cases, life-threatening.
Many nursing home neglect cases involve residents suffering from preventable injuries, untreated medical conditions, dehydration, malnutrition, medication errors, falls, infections, or bed sores caused by a facility’s failure to provide proper care. In some situations, family members may notice sudden behavioral changes, unexplained injuries, poor hygiene, or signs that a resident is being ignored by staff.
The Law Office of Andre L. Ligon, PC represents families throughout Houston and across Texas in nursing home neglect and abuse claims involving negligent care facilities, rehabilitation centers, and assisted living properties.

Holding Negligent Care Facilities Accountable
Nursing homes and long-term care facilities have a responsibility to provide residents with reasonable care and supervision. Unfortunately, many facilities place profits ahead of patient safety by operating with inadequate staffing, poor training, or unsafe conditions that place vulnerable residents at risk.
These cases often require immediate investigation, review of medical records, facility reports, staffing history, and documentation showing patterns of neglect or abuse inside the facility. Nursing home companies and their insurance carriers frequently attempt to minimize complaints or deny responsibility after a resident suffers harm.
