Coffey Modica LLP partner, Michael Mezzacappa, weighs in on an important legal ruling related to mandated arbitration, in this case, that sided with Uber over a plaintiff who was seriously injured during her Uber ride. The court ruled that since the injured party previously agreed to the company’s user agreement via its app, she waived all her rights to pursue any possible court claim.?? ? #coffeymodica #useragreements https://lnkd.in/e7FypUgK?

Coffey Modica founding partner Michael Coffey was featured in The Real Deal, offering expert insight on the recent crane collapse in St. Petersburg caused by Hurricane Milton. ?????????????????? ????????????’?? ??????????????????????: ?????????? ????????????????, ?????????????? ????????????, ???????????????? ???????????????? ???????? ???????????? ????????????????????????, ?????????????????? ???????????? ???? ???????? ????????? ?????????????? In the wake of Hurricane Milton, developers and contractors in the Tampa Bay area are evaluating damage at project sites, calling insurers and preparing to resume construction work. In St. Petersburg, where winds reached over 100 miles per hour, a crane at the construction site of developer John Catsimatidis’ luxury?Residences at 400 Central?condo tower partially collapsed and slammed into the office building across the street, leaving a hole in its side and bricks scattered. The offices at 490 First Avenue South house the Tampa Bay Times newspaper and other businesses. The 46-story, 301-unit condo tower will be the tallest building in St. Petersburg at 515 feet. It has three construction cranes reportedly rated to withstand winds of up to 110 mph. "One of the questions would be who made the call that that level sufficed. Was that an appropriate crane to have been up on one of the largest construction sites in western Florida in the middle of hurricane season?" Coffey commented on the incident. The article notes: "Attorney Michael Coffey, who has worked on construction crane accident cases, said the St. Petersburg collapse likely will prompt investigations by federal, state and local authorities. Among the inquiries will be whether the site should have used cranes made to withstand more than 110 mph winds." ??

Coffey Modica associate Veronica Mishkind, Esq, RN shares her expert advice for how medical practitioners can avoid malpractice lawsuits in this recent Medical Economics article. ?? Malpractice strategies | Medical Economics Journal Veronica Mishkind, a registered nurse who is now an attorney in Coffey Modica’s medical malpractice and professional liability practices, notes that the most common cause of malpractice suits is a failure to?diagnose?or a delay in diagnosis. “The risks associated with this can be catastrophic, so in order to mitigate those risks, PCPs (primary care providers) should conduct thorough head-to-toe examinations of their patients, refer patients to specialists or further tests for any complaints the patient may present,” she says. “The PCP should also refer the patient to blood panel screenings and other standard screenings such as mammograms.” Importantly, all of this should be documented in the PCP’s chart, including the results of the head-to-toe physical examination. ??
