Hand Tremors Compromised Ability to Provide Cosmetic Dentistry
New York cosmetic dentist Dr. Larry Ashkinazy called himself the "Dentist to the Stars," apparently serving a celebrity clientele. In 2002, he was riding his moped through Manhattan when he hit a manhole cover near Consolidated Edison service equipment. Though Con Ed claims the lid was barricaded, Dr. Ashkinazy sued.
The doctor was just awarded $15M for the hand tremors he suffered as a result of his injuries. Not surprisingly, Con Ed plans to appeal the ruling.
