Lawsuit claims Detroit attorney had undisclosed financial ties to MRI center
A lawsuit filed by State Farm Insurance claims Detroit attorney Mike Morse had an undisclosed financial relationship with Berkley, Michigan-based Horizon Imaging, an MRI provider that accepted referrals from Morse's law firm.
State Farm said its claims were supported by emails and other documents, according to a new report from Detroit Free Press.
“State Farm has an enormous economic interest in trying to stop Mike Morse from representing injured people in getting them the fair compensation they deserve from State Farm,” said Morse's attorney, I.W. Winsten of Honigman, Miller, Schwartz & Cohn, according to Detroit Free Press. “What State Farm is doing and saying is wrong, and they know it, and our response to the motion will prove that.”
In 2017, a doctor who plead guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud came forward with similar accusations against Morse, saying he was pressured to “alter or over-read” test results. According to Morse’s attorney, those claims were false.
