Bell, California
Welcome to the Bell website for Los Angeles nursing home neglect attorney Ben Yeroushalmi. Here at the Yeroushalmi Law, our team of elder abuse lawyers are dedicated to helping you understand the dangers of nursing home neglect and providing you with legal services, should you feel the need to take action against a skilled nursing facility.
The city of Bell, incorporated in 1927, is a small suburb of Los Angeles, located on the west bank of the Los Angeles River. Bell is rich in Native American history, as it was originally settled by Native Americans thousands of years ago when the Gabrielino Indians migrated there in 500 B.C. In 1876, James George Bell and his family settled in the area that we know as the city of Bell today. His Victorian style home still exists, as a historical landmark of the city. At the 2010 census, Bell's population was 35,477. Bell is home to one skilled nursing facility.
Inadequate staffing is the core problem of every nursing home. Not only do care facilities often fail to meet the legal minimum of 3.2 nursing hours per patient, per day, but they also often hire nurses that are not qualified for the job. Obviously, these nurses are unable to provide your loved one with the quality of care that he or she needs. In one extreme case, nursing homes were found guilty of hiring nurses who were previously convicted for drug tampering. Management had failed to properly screen their employees, and consequently put their patients' lives at risk. Fortunately, no one was injured in this particular instance. However, far too often, residents do suffer injuries or death as a direct result of staffing errors or recklessness. Under such unfortunate circumstances, the resident's loved ones may be able to bring a Wrongful Death claim against the care facility.
If you feel that your loved one's life is being put at risk by the staff at his or her skilled nursing facility, or that you may have a legitimate Wrongful Death claim, please contact us today to see how we can help. We at Yeroushalmi Law are eager to determine whether your loved one was subjected to such neglect, which is a form of Elder Abuse, and we will zealously fight to get you and your loved ones the compensation you deserve. We will advocate on your behalf, saving you the frustration and stress of handling the problem alone.

Ben Yeroushalmi accepted my case with much understanding and patience. He went above and beyond with the defense lawyers to reach a fair settlement. He explained the complete case process (as I had never filed a case with anyone) Ben kept my sister and I notified of every email or correspondence he had with the opposing council. Gloria

Ben is an outstanding litigator, and human being. He took on our case, as if it was his own. He paid close attention to details. His guidance was invaluable. He was very clear and concise, in explaining all potential scenarios to us. He spoke eloquently, and straight to the point at all times. Ben is a true professional, with a passion for his craft.

I had a heartfelt and memorable experience with Ben , very genuine and I can tell he loves what he does. His determination shows beautifully and it is amazing. In my opinion it is very rare you find people who love what they're doing and it shows. Not wanting to get religious on an review but, God introduced me to Ben for a reason. Summer
★★★★★
Ben was wonderful. He took our case when no one else was interested or wanted way to much money. We would highly recommend Ben because he really listens and takes your situation into consideration. We settled our case and we were only unhappy with one thing and that was the confidentiality clause but that was not Ben's fault it came with the deal. June
