Frequently Asked Questions

What is the statute of limitations for nursing home abuse in Maryland?
In Maryland, the statute of limitations for filing a nursing home abuse lawsuit is generally three years from the date of the injury or discovery of the abuse. For cases involving a death, the wrongful death claim must be filed within three years of the death. These time limits can be complex, so speak with a lawyer promptly.
What types of abuse are covered under Maryland law?
Maryland law covers physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation of nursing home residents. The state also requires facilities to report any suspected abuse to local authorities. A lawyer can help you identify which type of abuse occurred and build a strong case.
How do I prove nursing home abuse in Lanham?
Proving abuse often requires medical records, witness statements, facility logs, and photographs of injuries. A lawyer can gather this evidence and work with medical experts. In Maryland, the burden of proof is a preponderance of the evidence, meaning it is more likely than not that abuse occurred.
