The family of a woman who passed away at Torrevieja Hospital is duped by a lawyer

The trial of an Alicante lawyer accused of keeping more than 190,000 euros that he received as the legal representative of a deceased woman’s husband and children will take place on Friday, March 7th, in Section 7 of Elche of the Provincial Court of Alicante. The Ministry of Health acknowledged the amount because of a patrimonial responsibility that existed in the Torrevieja Hospital following the woman’s death.

Instead of distributing the money to the victims, the prosecution insists that the accused received a cheque with the money which he added to his own estate.

As a result, they are requesting that he be sentenced to three and a half years in prison and that he be prohibited from practicing law for five years.
