Florio, Perrucci, Steinhardt & Capelli and two attorneys from the firm are facing a malpractice suit for their representation of the New Jersey State Police and the South Jersey Transportation Authority in a suit over a traffic accident that resulted in an $8.7 million verdict.

State National Insurance Co. claims in its suit that the firm and attorneys Mark Peck and Brian Tipton were negligent in their representation of the state police and the SJTA in connection with the December 2005 crash. The malpractice suit says the Florio Perrucci attorneys failed to assert statutory immunity defenses on behalf of the state police and the SJTA in a negligence suit by Janet Henebema, whose right leg was severed in the crash on the Atlantic City Expressway.
