The professionals of Shrager, Spivey & Sachs are experienced in protecting the rights of Pennsylvania’s elderly and infirm, defending victims of nursing home and assisted living facility abuse and neglect.
Our firm is guided by the philosophy of our late founding partner, David S. Shrager and his dedication to protecting the elderly. Attorney Shrager believed "The trial bar has a special obligation to use tort law as a hammer in support of a proper level of protection of the rights of our geriatric population" and that "The loss of independence is a devastating injury."
It is this philosophy and commitment to protecting the elderly and infirm that has helped us secure numerous six-figure settlements for our clients, including:
- For the family of an 82-year-old woman who fell three times, broke her hip and eventually died;
- For the family of an 87-year-old man who died of a fractured hip that led to internal bleeding;
- For a 74-year-old man who suffered bed sores, which eventually resulted in amputation;
- For the family of an 82-year-old man who died of complications from a fall;
- A $175,000 settlement for an 85-year-old woman who broke her wrist and hip in a fall due to missing handrails;
- For an 86-year-old woman who was left in a wheelchair for 11 hours before falling and fracturing her hip;
- For the family of a 74-year-old woman who was neglected while suffering end-stage lung cancer; and
- For the family of a resident who died as the result of severe neglect, including untreated broken bones.
