Healthcare Fraud includes Medicare Fraud, Medicaid Fraud and Insurance Fraud. It is a complicated area of the law, prosecuted by both Federal and State authorities, who share jurisdiction in this area of the law.
Our attorneys offer solid advice and strong grand jury representation to health care providers. We take steps throughout the process to force prosecutors to earn the introduction of evidence, testimony and charges against our client.

The Medicare and Medicaid plans are really so complicated and confusing that even experienced doctors, physician’s assistants and medical office administrators inadvertently violate the existing fraud regulations.
Any easy mistake gets acquired with a random review and result in a state or federal investigation. It is vital to employ a criminal defense attorney in the beginning of the probe.
