LEGAL UPDATES

Quadrino Schwartz is a regional leader defending medical providers in large scale no-fault lawsuits brought against them by auto insurers.  The insurance companies began their campaign against medical providers more than a decade ago, and Quadrino Schwartz has been in the forefront of these lawsuits since the beginning.

The lawsuits commenced by insurance companies involve challenges to the medical providers’ billing for no-fault benefits.  The cases seek large scale refunds of monies previously paid to the providers. Often, these suits reach back a number of years and seek not only substantial refunds, but also a court declaration seeking to ban a provider from any future billing and collection for no-fault benefits.

Our firm takes the fight the these insurers, often showing their allegations to be unfounded or that the insurers are legally barred from pursuing their claims due to delay or inappropriate conduct on their behalf.  More recently, as the insurers have gotten even more aggressive by asserting Racketeering (“RICO”) claims, we have had success in fighting back and defeating such claims.

We handle all cases, whether the allegations involve billing fraud, “corporate structure” violations, racketeering (“RICO”), medical necessity, billing irregularities, or unjust enrichment.  Our team of lawyers are among the most experienced in the region and have a track record of success in representing medical providers in this challenging practice area.
