Ava G. Mahmoudi, of the Ft. Lauderdale office, recently achieved favorable settlements in three PIP cases on behalf of her client, the insurance carrier in all three cases, which have been in litigation since 2012. The claims in each case were denied for billing for services not rendered (fraud). The exposure in these cases was in the thousands in just the medical bills, plus more than $25,000 in attorney’s fees. Ava persuaded the judge to allow her to depose the owner of the medical clinic at issue in each of the three cases (not often granted). After Ava obtained the order compelling the clinic owner’s deposition, she was able to negotiate a settlement of all three cases for $750 per case.
