About Us

Here is what we would like to say to our potential clients:

"If you find yourself involved with one of the many state or federal agencies that regulate the practice of your profession, such as the Medical Board, Pharmacy Board, DEA, third-party payor, Medi-Cal, etc., you should at least consult, and probably hire, competent counsel who is experienced in this area of practice. These are definitely not "do-it-yourself" projects. Hire counsel, whether it's our office or other competent lawyers. You need an attorney when dealing with these people, regardless of what they tell you about "not requiring an attorney."

"We have over 25 years of experience in this field of practice. We offer the initial conference in our offices at no charge. That conference will enable you to decide whether you wish to hire us, and whether we will be comfortable handling your case, and what the appropriate fees will be.

We give your case our individual attention and our efforts and experience are devoted to getting you through a difficult situation with a minimum of grief and a favorable result.

Any questions? Give us a call and we will do our best to answer them for you.
