The law firm of Silbowitz, Garafola, Silbowitz, Schatz & Frederick is composed of highly skilled, experienced, and dedicated New York bedsore injury attorneys. The firm’s litigation practice focuses on nursing home neglect cases resulting in bedsore and broken or fractured bone injuries and surgeries associated with these types of injuries. Often, injured victims who suffer bedsores, broken or fractured bones in a nursing home, also injure other parts of their bodies in the same accident. We are also highly experienced in handling all types of injuries, including surgeries and injuries to the head, knees, shoulders, legs, arms, muscles, tissues, and nerves. Our firm has a proven track record of recovering multi-million dollar awards because we pursue your money as if it is our own.

Representing victims in New York bedsore cases as well as victims in the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Westchester, Nassau, Suffolk, and all New York counties, is the core of our business. Regardless of whether your nursing home neglect injuries are bedsores, slip/trip and fall, or broken bone injuries requiring surgery, our expertise and services are designed to obtain fair and adequate compensation for your or a loved one’s pain and suffering, medical expenses, and future expenses associated with these devastating injuries.

Bedsores or pressure sores usually develop overtime and are categorized according to the severity of the injury. Bed sore stages range from mild redness to destruction of the bone and muscle tissue.

• Stage I Bedsore: Surface of the skin is red and irritated
• Stage II Bedsore: Blisters or shallow craters form where the outer layer of skin dies
• Stage III Bedsore: Sores have entered the deeper layers of skin and often appear as a large open, bleeding and oozing wound
• Stage IV Bedsore: The most severe stage, the sores have penetrated all layers of the skin, exposing muscle or bone

Because of the seriousness and pain that accompanies bedsore injuries, our clients often are forced to be confined to hospitals and rehabilitation centers and possibly undergo surgery.

Our broad spectrum of services will guide you through the legal, financial, and personal challenges that you and your loved ones encounter while we aggressively pursue your bedsore injury case. From the moment our firm is hired (no fee unless we win) and throughout our representation, we will determine the needs of your case. Those needs may include:

• Evaluating your bedsore injuries based on review of your medical records;
• Retaining appropriate medical experts to testify as to the severity of your injuries;
• Developing a life care plan to address future and other medical needs.
