Senior providers and healthcare institutions for the elderly continue to face an array of regulatory challenges and legal claims that permeate all aspects of their business. FMG’s Aging Services and Long-Term Care practice team is an interdisciplinary group of accomplished attorneys who counsel and defend nursing homes, hospitals, ambulance companies, geriatric facilities, home health providers, occupational and rehabilitation providers, pharmacies, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, personal care homes, and mobile radiology providers, along with their administrators, physicians, nurses, nurses aides, therapists, and their employees.
FMG’s team is composed of experienced trial lawyers who know the courtroom and have handled virtually every type of elder case, including claims for professional errors and omissions, negligence, resident falls, neglect and abuse, nutrition and hydration, medication errors, wound care, infectious diseases, pressure ulcers and infections, and other cases with complex and catastrophic issues of causation and damages. We also offer full-service capabilities including handling regulatory, licensing, compliance, reimbursement, governance, fraud and abuse, payor and provider contracting, information technology, employment, HIPAA, artificial intelligence, cyber security, and all types of business litigation.
Our lawyers understand the need for a comprehensive and proactive defense strategy to effectively counter the aggressive arguments pursued by so many plaintiffs’ lawyers in the healthcare area. We work closely as trusted partners and counsel to insurers, management, and general counsel to develop a winning strategy and achieve the outcome desired by our clients.
