Social Work Negligence
Social workers play a critical role in the daily lives of our state’s most vulnerable citizens. Social workers assigned to protect children, developmentally disabled and elderly adults are responsible for critical aspects in the lives of tens of thousands of citizens who are unable to protect themselves.
Many social workers do a fine job but tragically, many do not. When a social worker fails to monitor and protect their vulnerable client, the results are often catastrophic. All too often, the failure to protect a child or disabled citizen leads to injury or sexual victimization by predators.
With more than $40 million in recoveries on behalf of vulnerable citizens who were neglected by social workers, the Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro Personal Injury Group is the most experienced, successful and knowledgeable group of attorneys in this dynamic area of the law.
