Are you, or a loved one, the victim of Abuse and Negligence?
Our Experienced Abuse and Negligence Lawyers Are on Your Side
If you or your loved one has suffered abuse or negligent care at the hands of another, you may be entitled to receive compensation. Arizona is home to many individuals who need extra care; often, these individuals are young children spending time at daycare or elderly adults residing at an assisted living facility or nursing home. Unfortunately, places that are charged with caring for our most vulnerable loved ones are not immune to unscrupulous employees or neglectful policies. If you or someone you know has experienced this kind of treatment, you can turn to The Valley Law Group to find legal help for victims of nursing home abuse or daycare abuse.
Parents entrust their most precious loved ones to the care and protection of the daycare center, sometimes only to have that child suffer abuse or negligent harm at the hands of those who were supposed to care for them. If this describes you, a daycare negligence attorney from The Valley Law Group can help you. Similarly, if you or an elderly loved one has suffered harm or abuse in their nursing home or assisted living residence, the nursing home abuse lawyers from The Valley Law Group can help.

Consulting an Attorney

Filing a Claim
After you choose an attorney, they can begin to file your compensation claim. Your attorney can ensure that no deadlines are missed in the filing process and that all the paperwork is filled out correctly and on time. At this stage, it is important to provide the information requested and trust that your attorney has your best interests and the interests of your child or parent at heart.
Negotiations
Your attorney can then enter into negotiations with the insurance company and attorneys representing the daycare center, the nursing home, or the party at fault, depending on the nature of the abuse and your claim. At this time, it is best to provide your attorney with any additional information that they might require of you and to trust their judgment as they negotiate with all parties involved in the claim.
Trial or Litigation
If a favorable settlement is still out of reach, your attorney will likely bring the claim to court and begin litigation with the parties at fault, including their insurance company and attorneys. At this point, your attorney will present your documentation, demonstrate fault, and thoroughly describe the injuries involved. This information will help them advocate for the appropriate compensation for your damages.
