One of six South Florida personal injury attorneys accused of taking part in an extensive insurance scheme has avoided incarceration after pleading guilty to 15 felony charges.
Steven Slootsky, a personal injury lawyer who practiced in Boca Raton, was sentenced by Broward Circuit Judge Michael A. Usan Thursday to 10 years probation on one count and five years probation, to be served concurrently, on 14 other counts. According to Usan’s office, Slootsky’s sentence does not include any prison time or fees.
