How Can Our Nursing Home Attorneys Help?
Having a loved one in a nursing home can be a difficult enough experience on its own. The possibility of a loved one being injured in a nursing home can only add to the stress.
If you suspect that your loved one is being abused or neglected in a Coles County nursing home, we encourage you to take immediate action. In Illinois, there are deadlines for filing nursing home lawsuits, known as a statute of limitations, so it is important to contact a Chicago nursing home neglect attorney at the first signs of abuse or neglect. If you have questions about what might constitute abuse or negligence, we would be happy to talk with you. All of our consultations are completely free of charge, and we operate on a contingency basis which means that we do not collect any fees until we recover compensation for you.

Testimonials
Not only were they so professional but also so caring and thoughtful. It was very difficult going over the facts in our mother's case but they were so compassionate and understanding and allowed us to be with them every step of the way. We were able to sit in on the depositions and we were really able to see how hard they worked on our behalf.
During that time, my family and I suffered the loss of my mother. Mr. Levin and Mr. Perconti were more than just our lawyers. Words can’t really express our gratitude.
They were most patient and responded timely to many questions throughout the entire process. All demonstrated professionalism and extensive knowledge of case and state laws. Their in-depth investigative work uncovered details which were unknown to us and yet sadly confirmed our suspicions. We would recommend the Levin and Perconti Law firm and especially this team.
During that time, my family and I suffered the loss of my mother. Mr. Levin and Mr. Peconti were more than just our lawyers. Words can’t really express our gratitude. My family and I will always be grateful for the compassion that they showed us. I want to thank you for what you did for my family, and for always being there for us.
Margaret’s representation, guidance, and professionalism gave us the sense that we could put our trust in Levin & Perconti and the final outcome proved that to be true.
