She is successful in evaluating cases early on in a concise manner, evaluating the medical and/or dental issues with the assistance of expert witnesses, analyzing liability and damages and determining a plan at the inception of each case to achieve the most realistic and favorable outcome for her clients. Traci has significant experience in negotiating and many of her colleagues refer to her as “pennies on the dollar” since she fights to save her clients as much as possible at mediation and during informal settlement discussions with opposing counsel. Traci takes pride in advocating for her clients and “holding” their hand through the entire stressful litigation process. In her “free” time, Traci and her husband Michael, are parents to a 16-year-old son Justin, and spend a lot of time traveling to Justin’s varsity baseball games and travel baseball games. Traci has recently become very active in playing pickle ball which is not surprising since she used to actively play tennis. Professional & Civic Affiliations

Representative Matters
Case Dismissed: Broward County, Florida (Medical Law)
West Palm Beach Partner Traci Glickman, Fort Lauderdale Partner Jordan Cohen, and West Palm Beach Associate Charles Roussin were successful in having Plaintiffs’ Fourth Amended Complaint dismissed with prejudice against their client, a certified surgical assistant who was alleged to have participated in a complex scheme involving “fake surgeries” and been a party to over 40 instances of malpractice.
Over the past three years, the legal team successfully filed motions to dismiss Plaintiffs’ voluminous initial Complaint as well as the two subsequent Amended Complaints. After dismissing the Plaintiffs’ Third Amended Complaint, the Court made it clear that it would give the Plaintiffs one final chance to fix the inadequacies in the prior Complaint and Amended Complaints.
This Fourth Amended Complaint, spanning over 1,400 pages, consisted of 41 plaintiffs bringing causes of action sounding in medical malpractice, civil conspiracy and civil RICO.
Glickman, Cohen, and Roussin again prepared a Motion to Dismiss this Fourth Amended Complaint against their client, for numerous grounds including failing to state discernible causes of action, conclusory allegations, failure to comply with the medical malpractice presuit action, failure to comply with the statute of repose, etc. A lengthy hearing was held on December 19, 2024.
On February 3, 2025, a Broward County Circuit Court Judge granted the Motion to Dismiss with Prejudice.
This was a complicated and challenging case. Congratulations Traci, Jordan, and Charles on your great work on behalf of our client.
