Significant Experience in Healthcare and Business IDFPR License Defense
Philosophy
The choice of counsel in professional licensure defense has never been a casual or uncomplicated decision.

Our Record
As can be expected, case histories for professional clients, describing even the basics of licensure defense and consulting, are confidential and do not lend themselves to public summary. We keep client information (and identities) confidential for all professional licensure cases.
When it comes to litigation, we can summarize publicly available information without revealing client identities and information. Representative case histories for members of our firm include:
- Filed and won many Administrative Reviews (appeals) of IDFPR decisions on behalf of licensed professionals, including physicians.
- Successfully defended a large Private Security Contractor Agency in a lawsuit that alleged our client’s security officer failed to prevent a shooting death.
- Obtained successful settlements in Federal Court against municipalities for violations of our clients’ civil rights.
- Defense of a significant number of medical malpractice cases filed against physicians.
- Dozens of jury trials, and even more trials before a judge.
- Hundreds of contested administrative hearings.
