Lawsuit against Peninsula Family Medical Practice to be heard in Supreme Court

A lawsuit by three women against a medical clinic who employed a doctor accused of sexual assault has been scheduled for the Supreme Court.

The trio, who claim they were patients of a Shafiul Milky, are suing the Peninsula Family Medical Practice for damages.

Mr Milky, 60, is currently on bail pending a trial relating to sexual assault charges.

The Peninsula Family Medical Practice, based in Ocean Grove, will defend the lawsuit in the Supreme Court’s Civil Circuit in September.

Arnold Thomas and Becker lawyer and partner, Jodie Harris, said the firm was expecting to hold mediation talks with their clients and the clinic in July, who allege they were abused by Mr Milky.

Testimonials

I’d been living the dream my entire life and it all came crashing down. When I was faced with a legal issue, I didn’t know where to start as far as making a claim. I saw an ad on TV saying give “Arnold Thomas & Becker a call…” so I did. 

After speaking with Lee Flanagan and listening to his knowledge of law, I felt at ease as he understood my situation and my occupation as a Professional Athlete.  I decided then and there this was the right law firm for me.

The fact that Lee was also a surfer and understood how I earned an income from surfing made all the difference.  

 My lawyers Lee Flanagan and Aki Munir are experts in their field and they certainly proved that.  Their legal assistant Lucy Maher was always on the ball and kept me informed throughout my claim.

 Initially I had approached another well-known law firm (who I was told were the best), but they just didn’t get it.  

I’m so grateful to the Arnold Thomas & Becker team – they achieved an incredible outcome for me.  I’m relieved to put all this behind me and start my life again.
