Discipline Summaries

February 28, 2004

PAUL GROSSMAN [#53660], 66, of Tarzana was suspended for 18 months, stayed, placed on three years of probation with a 60-day actual suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Feb. 28, 2004.

Grossman was a defendant in an insurance fraud lawsuit filed in 1984 by Allstate and State Farm insurance companies. The suit was filed against numerous chiropractors, physical therapy clinics, an insurance agent and several attorneys, including Grossman, that together were referred to as the Revere enterprise.

In 1997, a federal judge in Los Angeles found that the group created and submitted false medical and billing records to the two companies to support fraudulent insurance claims. The judge concluded that 44 personal injury claims submitted through the Revere enterprise to Allstate and 23 claims submitted to State Farm were fraudulent. He entered judgment against Grossman on Allstate’s fraud and conspiracy to defraud causes of action and State Farm’s RICO cause of action.

Grossman’s appeal was rejected.

According to the stipulation, Grossman made 24 fraudulent claims against Allstate insureds and collected, with others in the Revere group, about $141,489 in settlement money.

He was disciplined twice previously, with a private reproval in 1985 and a public reproval in 1996 for failing to perform legal services competently or promptly pay client funds.

In mitigation, Grossman satisfied the judgment and made restitution to both companies in the amount of $187,733. In addition, the events underlying the misconduct occurred between 1977 and 1981 and there has been no similar misconduct since.
