Medical Professionals Can Face Discipline for a Variety of Alleged Crimes
As Cleveland criminal defense attorneys, we know more than anyone else that many times charges are completely fictitious, but the result of a fictitious allegation can still ruin a person outside of the courtroom. It is important that you be defended by Cleveland medical disciplinary action lawyers that understand how to handle such allegations in a comprehensive fashion.
Medical professionals can face discipline for a wide variety of things, such as the following:
- Alcohol and drug-related crimes
- Perceived mental health issues
- Alleged sexual or inappropriate contact with patients
- Medicare and Medicaid fraud
- Insurance fraud
- False billing practices
- Invoice padding

How Can Patituce & Associates, LLC Help with Your Case?
If you are a medical professional facing criminal charges, you need immediate representation to cover both the criminal charges and the impending disciplinary action. Most Cleveland criminal defense attorneys do not understand, and do not practice, before the various state boards and therefore do not know that even a successful defense can have lasting penalties for the medical professional if not handled appropriately.
For instance, in a case where a doctor is accused of inappropriate patient contact, they may defeat the charges and obtain an acquittal but in doing so may establish the grounds to have his license revoked. It takes an experienced Cleveland medical disciplinary action lawyer to navigate this complex landscape.
We would not perform surgery on ourselves and a doctor should not perform legal surgery on their career! As well-educated professionals, we often think that we can handle anything that comes our way, but it is important to remember that not even criminal lawyers defend themselves when they face charges – at least not the good ones. It is our job to protect your ability to practice medicine.
Call our Cleveland medical disciplinary action attorneys at (440) 771-1175. Ask to speak to us about how we can help protect you. The call is confidential and without any obligation.

Cate Purdum was present, attentive, always returned my calls (I had attorneys before who never call you back), answered my questions and never ignored my calls. If I ever need an attorney in the future I will definitely go back to her.

Catherine Meehan did an amazing job. Very responsive, friendly, and obviously very good with words. She kept me out of jail and home with my kiddo. For that I can't ever repay the favor. Much appreciated hope I never need your assistance again but if so I'll definitely give you a call. Thank you again.
