I've been out of the legal field for a long time, and I was only a paralegal anyway. However, my guess is that she's working under an LLC or some other legal device designed to shield her from individual liability. You can't get anything from the corporation because of legal incorporation rules, you could sue the person but since it happened during the course of business determining the actual liability of the person is unlikely. A legal catch 22, if you will.View attachment 3888126

I am ignorant in the ways of law, but how does the practitioner opting out of medical malpractice insurance prevent them from being sued?
Also, if Florida has tort reform laws (likely, being a Republican state) then that further limits her individual liability and the amount of a potential judgement - which may or may not be all but impossible to collect on depending on state laws and how she's set up her assets. Most likely any assets that could be seized are shielded behind shell corporations.
Again this is only an educated guess. Maybe a real lawyer will come along and correct me, I could be way off.
It's really telling that she opted out of malpractice insurance. She knows exactly what she's doing, the butcher. These are the people that will end up in hell, if such a thing exists. I hope it does just for people like them.
