LOIS Secures Fraud Finding With Mandatory and Discretionary Penalties
LOIS Senior Associate Adam J. Lowenstein successfully obtained a fraud finding in a New York Workers’ Compensation claim. The claim involves an established claim to the neck, back, head, shoulders, feet, and for PCS and TBI. Approximately three years from the accident, surveillance showed claimant moving normally contradicting her reported limitations. The footage demonstrated significant functional abilities inconsistent with claimant’s medical portrayals. During fraud trial, claimant provided inconsistent explanations about her alleged restrictions, insisting she could not perform basic movements while also claiming extensive assistance with daily living.
