A federal lawsuit in Brooklyn reveals a conspiracy involving Long Island residents who allegedly conspired with a Manhattan law firm and a network of medical providers to exploit insurance claims. The lawsuit accuses them of staging slip and fall accidents, often on faulty sidewalks in Brooklyn and Queens, to fake injuries and receive unnecessary medical treatment. The scheme dates back to 2018, with some individuals allegedly receiving nearly identical treatment plans and surgical reports. The attorney for Union Mutual states that the participants are often vulnerable individuals who suffer ongoing consequences from unnecessary procedures.
Long Islanders were instructed to fake injuries and were sent to select medical providers who would inflate their treatment needs for lawsuit payouts.
