A Houston lawyer’s widower is suing his late wife’s former colleague over his decision to voluntarily dismiss a medical malpractice suit.

After Houston lawyer Tammy Henderson Peden died in 2017, her husband hired one of her former colleagues, Reginald McKamie Sr., to pursue the medical malpractice suit she had filed on her own behalf a month earlier. Tammy Peden formerly worked at The Law Office of Reginald E. McKamie.
