DISCONTINUANCE OF CASE IN FAVOR OF MEDICAL ATTENDING

Lloyd B. Cohen

In November, 2024, attorney Lloyd B. Cohen, Esq. secured a Stipulation of Discontinuance on behalf of a physician who served as the patient’s attending physician at a nursing home. In this Suffolk County case, the physician faced allegations of failing to prevent a fall and thereafter failing to timely transfer the then 82 year old male patient to a hospital.  It was claimed that the patient sustained a left hip fracture and chronic pain.  Although the co-defendant nursing home settled with the plaintiff, we were able to persuade plaintiff’s attorney to drop the case against our client without any contribution to the settlement.
