Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David J. Maher of Hicks & Anderson, P.A., Miami, for appellants.

DELL, Judge.

This appeal arises out of the settlement of a medical malpractice suit filed by appellees against Dr. David Drucker, Dr. Gary Birken, South Florida Pediatric Surgeons, P.A. ("SFPS") and four other parties for negligence in the treatment of their daughter. Appellants contend that the trial court erred in enforcing the settlement entered into by Dr. Drucker and his insurer against SFPS, Dr. Drucker's professional association. We agree.
