Top Assisted Living Abuse Lawyer In Wausau, Wisconsin

Choosing to move a loved one into an assisted living facility is a decision that comes with the expectation of professional care and a high quality of life. Families trust these institutions to provide a safe environment. However, when that trust is broken through negligenc, the emotional and physical toll can be devastating. At Habush Habush & Rottier, our assisted living lawyers are dedicated to protecting the rights of seniors.

Understanding Assisted Living Neglect and Abuse

While many facilities provide excellent care, the industry is unfortunately plagued by issues of understaffing and inadequate training. These systemic problems often lead to preventable injuries.  If you suspect your family member is suffering, consulting with an assisted living abuse lawyer is crucial. We understand the local regulations governing Wisconsin care facilities and use that knowledge to build a rigorous case for our clients.

Signs Your Loved One May Need Legal Protection

If you notice these warning signs in a facility in Wausau, it is important to act quickly. Our team of assisted living lawyers provides a thorough investigation into the facility’s history, staffing records, and medical logs to uncover the truth behind your loved one’s injuries.

Client Testimonials

My family and I worked with Benjamin Wagner and his team, and I was impressed throughout the process. We were deeply upset with the way an assisted living facility had treated one of my grandparents. The team helped us hold those who were responsible accountable. They were both organized and empathetic, and if, heaven forbid, you find yourself in a similar situation as we did, this law firm would surely be an excellent advocate on your behalf.
