Stage 4 Sacral Ulcer Settlement | $3.75M

An elderly nursing home resident developed a Stage 4 sacral pressure ulcer, a severe, deep wound that exposes muscle and bone and signals prolonged neglect. The facility failed to reposition the resident regularly, monitor their skin for early signs of breakdown, and provide the wound care and nutrition needed to prevent the injury from worsening. Susan Kang Gordon secured a $3,750,000 settlement for the resident and their family, holding the facility accountable for the preventable harm caused by neglect.

$6 Million Dollar Fee Award

For the cases which go to trial, we will always seek attorney’s fees directly from the defendant so that you do not have to pay us any fees from your award. In other words, we ask the Court to order the defendants to pay us our hourly fees. Fee awards are not granted for cases that result in a private settlement.
