Advances in public health policy, medical care, and diet have contributed to an incredible increase in the life expectancy of Americans. An American child born in 2010 is expected to live to 79, 20 more years than was expected in 1930! But with this increase in lifespan comes an increase in the need for specialized care.
Many of us turn to nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and group homes to provide for our elderly loved ones. Widespread social beliefs now overwhelmingly approve of nursing home care, over in-home care, as a viable option for our loved ones. It seems perfectly natural to send our family members to these institutions.

PA Nursing Home Lawyers is a law firm based in Center City Philadelphia, PA and dedicated to representing the rights of victims of nursing home abuse and neglect. We are led by Leonard P. Haberman, Esq., a distinguished member of the legal community who has spent his career fighting for justice against negligent nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and group homes.
As American society's most vulnerable citizens, the elderly all too often fall prey to neglect and abuse in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and group homes. The damage may be emotional, physical, or financial depending on circumstances; in every case, it is heartbreaking. In our numerous years of legal service, the attorneys at PA Nursing Home Lawyers have never lost sight of our guiding mission.
Elderly Americans are often prescribed special diets by their doctors. These diets are meant to meet their particular nutritional needs. Frequently, residents of nursing homes and assisted living facilities are unable to chew or process certain foods, and specialized dietary restrictions are put in place to eliminate these harmful substances from their diets.
Proper nutrition is important for everyone. To reach optimal health, we require a complex mix of vitamin, minerals, the right food, and water. This fact is nowhere more true than in the case of older adults. Nursing homes and assisted living facilities are legally responsible for providing their patients with adequate nutrition.
Because of their age and weakened physical state, many elderly residents of nursing homes are subject to infections. And while infections are sometimes unavoidable, many can be prevented through proper medical care and treatment. It is the responsibility of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and their medical staff to ensure that infections are avoided to the best of their ability, and treated properly when they do happen.

When my son was 1 year and 6 days old. The negligence of a nurse cost him his life, my family and I were destroyed because he was our first child. I wanted justice for my son and I started searching the web and thank God I found Dr. Haberman. He agreed to take our case. From the beginning, he was very kind to us. He sent us food and flowers with a card offering us condolences for the loss of our son. After that he fought to do justice for our son, he looked for even the smallest evidence necessary to win the case. He was always attentive to every step that had to be taken. He kept me informed of

I didn't know how to prove my mother was injured while she was living in a Nursing facility. Our family watched as our mother was hurt and going thru pain that was cause from neglect from the one place she should have been safe and cared for.
My mother experienced falls and injuries that was unexplainable.
Mr Haberman and the PA Nursing Home Lawyers went up against the Nursing home my mother was in. Mr Haberman was understanding and patience and fair. He team was efficient and hard working they didn't stop until a settlement was reached.
I 100% recommend if you have a family member or a spouse

Len has consistently proven himself to be a loyal, hard-working, and dedicated individual. Having known him for more than 20 years both personally and professionally, I can honestly say that he is a person who leads by example. Family, friends, and colleagues all look up to him and are inspired by his work ethic and dedication to his chosen field. He has proven to be a true leader in the legal field and has represented me as my attorney. I feel that he works hard and is dedicated at getting his clients the best outcome possible. I'd recommend Len Haberman for anyone who needs legal counsel or representation

After my initial attorney was no longer able to represent me for personal reasons, he referred me to Len. Although apprehensive at first, I agreed to have Len represent me. I allowed Len to do his job and trusted him throughout the process. I am pleased with his service and would highly recommended him for your personal legal matters!
