In an action alleging negligence, medical malpractice, statutory violations of New York State Public Health Law §2801-d, and negligent hiring and credentialing, Gallardo Levin Reiter & Rogers was awarded summary judgment dismissing all claims against its client, a prominent Long Island nursing home and rehabilitation facility. The Court agreed with Gallardo Levin Reiter & Rogers‘ argument that its client did not depart from accepted standards of care, that the alleged negligence was not a proximate cause of the plaintiff’s alleged injuries, and that it did not violate any statutes including New York State Public Health Law §2801-d. The Court further agreed with Gallardo Levin Reiter & Rogers‘ contention that plaintiff’s expert witness Affidavit was inadmissible due to procedural deficiencies and it was substantively deficient as it was conclusory, speculative, and not probative of the relevant issues. The case was handled by Gallardo Levin Reiter & Rogers Associate, Christopher Rogers.
