$150,000 Nursing Home Case
At Bautista LeRoy LLC, we have been fighting to stop elder abuse and nursing home neglect for over 16 years. We serve the areas of Kansas City MO and KS, Benton County, as well as St. Louis. Elder abuse and nursing home neglect is when a facility forgets about a loved one in a nursing home, and as a result, the resident falls, develops a pressure sore or becomes injured. Unfortunately, this is a frequent occurrence in Missouri and Kansas adult care facilities. In hopes of changing this trend, we help the abused residents, or their family member sue the nursing home, staff and supervising doctors for the injuries and injustices that the resident has suffered.
