Courts use rulings and awards from previous nursing home abuse and negligence cases to help determine fair compensation for a victim’s pain and suffering. Your Florida nursing home negligence attorney will also use these precedents as a guide to estimate our settlement offer to the nursing home. However, your case is technically worth either the maximum amount the nursing home will agree to award, or the maximum amount awarded by the judge and jury, if your case goes to court. Compensation in a nursing home injury case depends on multiple factors, including how the abuse or neglect occurred, the type of injuries suffered, the permanence of the injuries or resulting medical problems, the cost of future medical care, and other pain and suffering.
