A successful outcome isn’t always defined by a trial verdict. Sometimes, it’s defined by compelling the opposition to acknowledge their case cannot stand.
MBL Executive Partner Nadine Hammoud recently delivered exactly that while defending an exposure of nearly $1.9 million—including $1.7 million across 14 separate medical provider lawsuits stemming from two surgeries, plus a separate $200,000 claim from the injured party. Nadine executed a comprehensive defense strategy combining aggressive written discovery, thorough record retrieval, strategic coordination with experts, and securing devastating deposition testimony.
The evidentiary record made one conclusion unavoidable: the claims were built on fraudulent conduct and unsupported medical treatment.
Presented with this reality and strength of that evidence, opposing counsel across all matters conceded. The 14 medical providers resolved their combined $1.7 million in claims for $5,000 total, and the injured party voluntarily dismissed her $200,000 claim entirely.
For hashtagSIU teams, investigators, and claim adjusters, this outcome highlights the impact of early fraud identification, disciplined case development, and a defense partner that knows how to dismantle questionable claims.
