From Colucci, Colucci & Marcus, P.C. - Can I Sue a Nursing Home Under the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Law? explores how Chapter 93A of the Massachusetts General Laws may apply when nursing homes engage in unfair or deceptive business conduct tied to admissions promises, billing practices, transfers, or care-related representations.

This episode explains how the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act can strengthen nursing home abuse claims by allowing families to pursue accountability beyond ordinary negligence. It covers deceptive admissions materials, improper charges, billing fraud, systemic understaffing, and violations of consumer-protection regulations under 940 CMR 4.00.

Listeners will also learn how Chapter 93A claims differ from negligence lawsuits, including the demand letter requirement, the four-year statute of limitations, mandatory attorney’s fees, and the possibility of double or triple damages for knowing or willful violations. The discussion highlights the role of evidence such as admissions contracts, billing records, staffing logs, medical records, witness statements, and Massachusetts Department of Public Health inspection reports.

Featuring Colucci, Colucci & Marcus, P.C. attorneys Dino M. Colucci, Darin Colucci, and Matthew J. Marcus, this episode offers guidance for families in Boston, Milton, Quincy, Braintree, Brockton, Suffolk County, Norfolk County, and throughout Massachusetts who are evaluating legal options after nursing home abuse, neglect, or deceptive facility practices.
