    Exploitative Practices in Legal Representation for Construction Accident Cases

    In New York City, a scandalous practice has emerged within the legal community, involving unethical attorneys and law firms exploiting vulnerable Hispanic workers, including undocumented ones. These attorneys collaborated with social influencers from the Hispanic communities, who posed as legal representatives. These influencers targeted vulnerable individuals, using cultural and linguistic ties to earn their trust, only to manipulate them into handing over their construction accident cases. The cases were then funneled to law firms that had arranged for these deceptive solicitations, essentially buying the cases in a deeply unethical exchange.  

    As a result these law firms and attorneys are now dropping these cases in an effort to avoid criminal and cival prosecution.
