Memphis, TN Nursing Home Abuse Attorneys
Protecting Seniors and Fighting for Justice in Tennessee
Elder abuse and neglect in nursing homes is a serious and unfortunately common problem in Memphis. According to the National Center on Elder Abuse, nearly 50% of nursing homes nationwide, including facilities in Tennessee, do not have enough staff to meet residents’ needs. Vulnerable seniors often suffer quietly, facing physical, emotional, and financial harm due to understaffing, neglect, or outright abuse.

We fight to hold negligent facilities accountable and help families secure financial compensation while ensuring their loved ones’ dignity, safety, and rights are respected.

Understanding Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect in Memphis
All seniors in Tennessee nursing homes have the right to:
- Clean, Safe, and Dignified Living Conditions – residents should never face unsanitary conditions, unsafe practices, or privacy violations.
- Proper Medical Care – access to qualified doctors, nurses, dieticians, and other staff to meet their medical needs.
- Nutritious Meals – accommodations for dietary restrictions, food allergies, and medical conditions like diabetes or blood disorders.

“- Keron S.
Wesley Hisaw has represented me with my post divorce modification as well as a faultless MVA case. Divorce is never easy, but mine was exceptionally complicated and sensitive in nature. I was let down by my previous attorney and my trust in legal representation was broken. After my first consult with him, I walked out of his office with confidence in my case. I felt I was exactly where I needed to be and genuinely trusted he would help me, which he did! He is worth every penny and highly recommend! He has ALWAYS been there when I needed his legal guidance and support, extremely responsive and his assurance has never failed me!
