Yes, you can take legal action in every state when a facility’s failure to provide proper care causes injury or death.
Deadlines and limits on lawsuit payouts differ by state, so it’s best to speak with a nursing home abuse lawyer licensed in the state where the facility is located.
Every state sets its own deadline, called the statute of limitations. Some are as short as 1 year, and once that deadline passes, you lose your right to take legal action, even if you have a strong case.
These laws can be complex. It’s best to speak with an experienced nursing home lawyer as soon as you suspect negligence caused harm or death.

The state where the facility is located matters, not where you live. For example, if your mother is in a Florida nursing home and you live in Ohio, Florida law applies to her case.
This is where a national resource helps. The Nursing Home Abuse Center works with attorneys licensed across all 50 states, so we can connect you with a lawyer who knows the rules where your loved one’s facility is located. Get a free case review right now to take the first steps.
Filing deadlines, limits on financial compensation, and who can file may all depend on the state. An experienced nursing home abuse lawyer can explain the rules that apply in the state where the facility is located.
Nothing up front. The nursing home abuse lawyers we work with operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay only if they recover money for you. Call us right now at (855) 264-6310 to take the first steps toward justice.
