Attorneys Should Never Be Involved in Fraud with Clients

The Crime Fraud Exception to The Attorney Client Privilege

In United States of America v. Aron Chervin, Et Al, No. 10 CR 918 (S.D.N.Y. 09/21/2011) an indictment involving multiple health insurance fraud perpetrators attempted to keep from their criminal trial wiretap conversations that seem to establish the crime.

By motion dated June 1, 2011, Defendant Michael Lamond (“Lamond”) moved to suppress nineteen telephone conversations between himself and Defendant Aron Chervin intercepted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) pursuant to court-authorized wiretaps. Defendant argued that the communications are protected by the attorney-client privilege because Aron Chervin was a client.

The Defendants were charged with creating wholesale and retail shell corporations to perpetuate the fraudulent sale of Durable Medical Equipment (“DME”) to obtain inflated reimbursement from no-fault insurance providers, and financing their scheme through the sale of fraudulent receivables of the clinics to investors who benefitted from the inflated reimbursement generated by the fraud even though New York State prohibits medical professionals from sharing fees for medical services with non-medical professionals.

The sophisticated schemes also utilized the services of lawyers to represent patients, to facilitate payments, and to prevent the insurance companies from detecting the possibility of fraud.
