Phoenix Elder & Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers

More than $3 billion recovered for consumers since 1993 in Arizona and nationwide

The senior population of Phoenix and across Arizona is continuing to grow as we move toward the middle of the 21st century. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, and any senior 60 or older have the right to expect that private caretakers, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes will treat each senior with respect and dignity. They have the right to expect that abuse won’t be tolerated and that every reasonable precaution will be taken to protect each senior.

And yet, every day vulnerable, elderly people are abused and neglected at the hands of the very people whose job is to protect them.

Garcia & Artigliere is fighting to end elder abuse once and for all.

At Garcia & Artigliere, our Arizona elder abuse and nursing home abuse lawyers hold home any person or entity responsible for the care of a senior accountable when they fail to protect seniors in their care. We are fierce advocates on behalf of the elderly, the infirm, and the vulnerable. If you or your loved one has suffered, it’s time to take back control. Call us today to get started.

Drawing Line in the Sand

The case is drawing a line in the sand. Through this case we are telling these operators who think that our elderly relatives’ and friends’ value is determined by how much money the operator can make off of them. We won’t stand for it anymore. It is time to stop this egregious abuse of the law and our elders.

– Attorney Stephen Garcia

Nationally acclaimed attorneys handling delayed treatment of stroke claims

While the risk of stroke generally increases with age, anyone at any age can suffer a stroke. Early treatment can help stop the most serious disabilities from happening and can prevent tragic deaths from occurring. Private caretakers such as home health care aides, long-term care facilities such as nursing homes that provide medical care, and hospitals must know the signs and symptoms of stroke and what immediate actions to take to ensure the stroke is treated as quickly as possible.

According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, untreated ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes can cause paralysis, mobility problems, communication difficulties, emotional difficulties, memory problems, and other disorders. Untreated strokes may be fatal.

There are very effective treatments for seniors who have stroke symptoms if the treatment is not delayed. One drug, tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is well-known and well-studied to helps dissolve clots when the elderly have an ischemic stroke – only if tPA is given within 3 hours (4.5 at the utmost) from the onset of symptoms.

If someone you love is suffering from a stroke or tragically died due to a stroke, contact Garcia & Artigliere today. We work with physicians who understand the proper protocols for managing strokes from the onset of the initial symptoms and the transport of the senior to the hospital – to the surgical treatments and rehabilitative care. We are skilled Phoenix delayed treatment of stroke lawyers.
