Do You Qualify to File a Lawsuit?
You may be eligible for a lawsuit if you:
Were a patient at the Sports Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Rehabilitation Services of the North Shore (STARS Rehabilitation) orNorthwell Sleep Center in Great Neck between August 2022 and April 2024
Used the bathroom or private spaces during your visit
Are a parent of a minor who visited the facility during that time
Experienced emotional distress, trauma, or privacy violations as a result
Don’t wait. You may have limited time to take legal action.

Victims may be entitled to compensation for:
Emotional distress and psychological trauma
Violation of privacy rights
Negligent hiring or supervision
HIPAA violations
Inappropriate exposure of minors
STARS Rehab & Northwell Health May Be Held Legally Liable. If you or your child were in the private setting of a clinic bathroom, you may have been secretly filmed and we can help you find out.
