This is an extremely important matter. Appropriate reasons, such as a prior treater, attempted various nonopioid treatments of some kind that failed. There must be a very good reason why opioids were tried. It must be documented.  </p> <p>Larry Kobak, Esq.</p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em>Senior Counsel</em></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Frier Levitt</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">ATTORNEYS AT LAW</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">101 Greenwich Street, Suite 8B</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">New York, NY 10006</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">(516) 755-7553 direct</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">(973) 618-1660 office</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><a href= "https://u2306505.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=M3V7pKe308SQRDM8wYnXBQ4gO3-2Bp0iuNvKy7hs7BlMo5Y29OFJwgeRqCSvoLlWkOr9-2Bzm0q-2BGr-2FIR2Bq-2FcTX6K-2FMKc4-2BtkzAc8zXS4E3kUFOgmDj-2FHvq-2FFZ-2BCpGt2uuGK-2FdM6oi0cqEsPUh-2B7hQKsbVIWuFon-2F5nNsykoDkJlHqfXbf-2FUbxhvtuqwUC1lrIocavsrDLkFuNlMdbbQQVn1Q-3D-3DK3G6_Ab8EIpIHzip6BGEqYHUJ-2FhQ5BmpKW3S-2BPj6iSUQ8egVIgqpBD6rPjSu-2B0Dk6YGr9A-2BJHI8EchyuDz
