Overt abuse and neglect may be the most obvious concerns that come to mind when you think of nursing home neglect. But did you know that both Pennsylvania and Federal law recognize a resident’s right to personal dignity? Personal dignity relates to an elder’s sense of worthiness.

In these instances, the employees may be criminally indicted.

Sandra, Muller Brazil ClientI'm so thankful that I chose Muller Brazil to represent me. My attorney took time to answer my questions prior to even asking for his representation, and as the case progressed - he was impeccable at responding and keeping me up to date. They really brought a personal touch to my case.
Candace, Muller Brazil ClientFrom the first conversation, Mr. Brazil was professional and clear about the process of filing and documenting an injury claim. His advice proved to be invaluable, and he was always accessible when I needed help during the process. I would not hesitate to recommend the Muller Brazil team.
Billy, Muller Brazil ClientVery seldom do you have the pleasure of dealing with an attorney like Ms. Mancuso. I found her attention to detail excellent and her willingness to share her time to make sure I completely understood the process remarkable. Ms. Mancuso was always available to take my phone calls and quick to reply to my emails. Most importantly, she guided me all the way through the process to see that I got a fair and equitable settlement. I could not have been more pleased!

I can't express how much gratitude I have to the Muller Brazil team.
Wendy, Muller Brazil ClientMs Senerth took the burden of filing a claim for me, kept me informed of progress, and even advised that I decline the first offer. Ms Senerth told me how to collect affidavits and she used that info to get me a larger settlement. Highly recommended!
