New York & New Jersey No-Fault Civil RICO Lawyers
We Focus on Civil Defense Cases
No-fault insurance policies are used to provide car accident claimants with medical benefits in both New York and New Jersey. Under this insurance rule, medical benefits can be provided and paid for by a claimant’s insurer before fault for the accident is ever decided or investigated. The medical provider will treat the patient and bill their auto insurance provider directly based on the patient’s necessary medical care. This is where the matter gets difficult, though, because many no-fault medical claims filed by medical providers to a patient’s auto insurer will be denied without valid reasoning.
To make matters even more complicated, insurance companies will sometimes file a fraud/civil RICO lawsuit to halt the no-fault claim in its tracks. The insurer might have no reason to file the claim, other than to trip up the medical provider and make them give up their pursuit of the owed payments. This tactic often works, too, because medical providers do not want to get stuck in court with an insurance company, especially if the payments they are owed are not steep.
At The Russell Friedman Law Group, LLP, we think it is wrong for auto insurance companies to take advantage of claimants and medical providers alike. We proudly stand up for medical providers in New York and New Jersey who have been slammed with a no-fault civil RICO lawsuit by an insurer who is using the lawsuit disingenuously. We can defend you and your practice – whether you have a few support staff or are the owner of a statewide medical organization – from the lawsuit, and we might be able to turn it around and secure winnings for you, instead.

Cost of Losing a No-Fault Civil RICO Case
If you have been accused of fraudulently seeking medical insurance money from an auto insurance company after treating one of its policyholders, then you could be faced with severe consequences. Losing the no-fault civil RICO case brought against you could mean paying three times the amount of money you have been accused of seeking or obtaining from the insurance company. For example, if you are charging the insurer $50,000 for all provided medical care, then the court could order you to pay $150,000 in damages.
Our no-fault civil RICO defense attorneys can help protect your future and finances by:
- Using strong evidence to show that your medical treatments were justified.
- Showing that all medical treatments were coded and priced correctly.
- Proving that the insurance company has a history of fraudulent RICO cases.
With a successful defense, the court might dismiss the case against you. Additionally, the insurance company that tried to sue your medical practice could be ordered to provide the owed payments and pay for all legal fees.
Protect Your Practice – It is the Right Thing to Do
Far too often, insurance companies get away with filing no-fault civil RICO lawsuits against medical providers just to escape paying a bill. Don’t let your medical practice be disrespected this way and forced to pay a massive penalty for doing nothing wrong. Defend yourself with the assistance of our New York and New Jersey no-fault civil RICO lawsuit defense lawyers. The sooner you let us get to work on your case, the stronger we can make it.
