We are experienced trial lawyers and are well-known in the industry for defending medical malpractice and disciplinary actions by state licensing boards for professional liability insurance companies, hospitals, and physicians. We also have broad experience in litigating criminal and civil cases relating to Medicare fraud and abuse, reimbursement disputes, and representation of medical staff.
We have successfully represented physicians and physician groups involving practice mergers and sales. We are frequently engaged on our client’s behalf in the internal issues of physician practices, physician recruitment, physicians employment agreements, covenants not to compete, shareholders agreements, stock purchase agreements, and deferred compensation arrangements.
And, when our clients need us, we’re right there. We understand the critical issues that keep them up at night:
- How will we manage when our company has been served?
- What can we do to avoid ending up in the courtroom?
- How can we comply with the relevant regulations and statutes? What can we do to work through a complex and urgent situation?
Our lawyers provide solid advice and direction to help clients make those critical decisions for the best possible outcome.
We’re there for our clients addressing third-party reimbursement, Medicare audits and appeals, antitrust issues, labor law issues, Medicare fraud and abuse issues, risk management and patient care issues, consent issues, and tax issues such as private inurement and benefits. When regulatory issues affect the health care industry, we counsel our clients on matters relating to Stark Law and certificates of public need.
Additionally, we have a reputation of advising risk management and helping our clients who may be facing HIPAA violations. We also provide policies, procedures, and counseling for staff taking health data while working from home. Should a data breach occur, we advise our clients on the corrective actions to mitigate damages.
