$2 Million

Case Details

Thomas Law Offices secured a $2 million jury verdict against O’Neill Healthcare-Fairview Park in the wrongful death case of Milka Simonoski, a non-verbal nursing home resident who lost 25% of her body weight and died from sepsis caused by an untreated urinary tract infection. The jury awarded $1.5 million for pain and suffering and an additional $500,000 for violations of Ohio’s Nursing Home Residents’ Bill of Rights Act after finding that the facility failed to properly communicate critical medical information to her family and provide appropriate care as her condition deteriorated.
