Duffy & Duffy’s Damien Smith successfully secured a $500,000 verdict for a 94-year-old woman who suffered a broken hip at an assisted living facility, necessitating surgical repair. This case highlighted significant neglect, as her primary care physician failed to address changes in her condition, including prior falls, which gave reason for a re-evaluation. A Nassau County jury held the doctor responsible for neglect despite no offer from the defendant.
This landmark case brings justice to the victim and sends a message to care facilities and healthcare providers about how important it is to be diligent and compassionate when it comes to care. The verdict reflects the dedication and expertise of Duffy & Duffy in handling complex nursing home abuse cases and their unwavering commitment to protecting the rights and dignity of the elderly.
