How is a nursing home case filed?
A lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation into the facts and circumstances surrounding the abuse and make a determination if there would be a good chance the elderly person would recover money as a result of the abuse. The report from the N. C. Division of Facilities goes a long way in helping with this decision. Most elderly people need to have a court-appointed guardian to file the action as they are not usually competent to handle their own affairs. Once the lawyer determines that a good case exists, a complaint is filed with the Court against the nursing home.
