Lawyers scramble for patients of accused Hopkins gynecologist

One law firm has rented out a conference room in the downtown Hilton and invited patients of a Johns Hopkins gynecologist to discuss their legal options. Other firms are taking out newspaper ads, urging his patients to contact them. Others are asking clients to spread the word to other potential victims.

Baltimore lawyers have begun jockeying for a role in finding out what happened in the offices of Dr. Nikita A. Levy, who is accused of secretly photographing and videotaping patients.

Richard Kenny was quoted in a recent article in the Baltimore Sun concerning the ongoing sexual abuse investigation of Dr. Nakita Levy at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore.  You can link to the article here:

Psychologist Sex Abuse Lawsuit Filed

Hartford, Connecticut crime victim lawyer, Timothy O’Keefe, has filed a lawsuit against a psycho-therapist who engaged in a sexual relationship with one of his patients. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a woman who was the victim of sexual abuse perpetrated by her male psychologist.

“It is not particularly common for a victim to bring a claim against her therapist in this context because of the victim’s belief that she was a willing participant in the relationship. The inherent imbalance of power in the these relationships, however, always makes it wrong for these relationships to occur. Our client has demonstrated great courage in bringing this matter to the authorities. She now seeks full compensation in this civil lawsuit for her harms and losses.” Timothy O’Keefe, Kenny, O’Keefe & Usseglio, P.C.
