This Deep Dive is a follow up to the foundations video about the legal complaint filed by the State of Alabama against South Alabama Medical & Rehab LLC (SAMR), two law firms, and several individuals, alleging violations of the Alabama Deceptive Trade Practices Act. We break down the claims that the defendants engaged in a scheme to deceive accident victims into receiving "free" and inadequate medical treatment at SAMR, which then pressured them to sign retainer agreements with the associated law firms. Discussing the allegations that these firms maximized settlement values through inflated medical liens rather than prioritizing patient well-being, often without the victims' full understanding or consent.
