Mr. Ranzenhofer and his attorneys were great! My case was handled quickly and I got a great result – $300,000. I fell at my doctor’s office, so I knew it was a hard case. Mr. Ranzenhofer developed a strategy that got me a great result. I highly recommend Mr. Ranzenhofer and his team of attorneys.

I feel I was treated great. Mr. Ranzenhofer responded quickly with call backs and any questions, there were never any doubts of where my case was and he was always reassuring that being patient was the answer. And it was. I want to thank him and his legal team especially with the office personnel always friendly and also quick responses when messages were left. Highly recommended. Thanks for everything

anonymous via I was hit head on in a car accident and had got injured. I contacted Mike Ranzenhofer and he got started the process of getting money for me for my pain and suffering and future medical bills. Every time I called or came to his office he always took his time to help me. And we eventually won the case. He is an amazing lawyer and person himself and I would fully recommend him to anyone.
One of the most overlooked crimes across the United States is the physical and mental abuse that happens to our parents and grandparents in some nursing homes. This is because elderly people who live in nursing homes do not want to start trouble with the people who they are around 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Unfortunately, the longer the abuse goes on the more likely it is that there will be very serious and sometimes deadly results for the elderly people living in nursing homes. If this abuse was done by those who have state licenses, you have the legal right to demand answers. If you suspect your loved one is a victim of nursing home negligence, contact our dedicated Rochester nursing home abuse lawyers for a legal consultation.
One of the most frequent questions our Rochester nursing home abuse lawyers receive is “Why do the elderly get abused?” Our answer is that unfortunately, some nursing homes care more about saving money than helping the elderly people they are supposed to care for.
Common consequences of nursing home abuse are: weight loss, failure to treat pressure sores, pain management, dehydration, malnutrition and even starvation. Nursing Homes are finally being held responsible after years of providing substandard care. A large number of lawsuits have been filed in the U.S in recent years. Nursing homes have had to provide compensation to the victims and their families – particularly when the abuse led to the death of a loved one.
If you have a family member residing in a nursing home and they have been abused, neglected or injured while in the care of a nursing home or other healthcare facility, contact our dedicated Rochester nursing home abuse lawyers to discuss what happened.
You and your family do have legal rights. Why not find out what options you have, and stop the abuse immediately!
