Fighting to Defend Healthcare Professionals’ Interests

When you entered the healthcare profession, you probably never imagined giving up your ability to practice. However, medical boards have the power to revoke or impose restrictions on licenses that can affect your reputation and make it impossible to earn a living.

If you’re facing license suspension or revocation, you need an aggressive approach from a knowledgeable attorney. Our Nashville healthcare professional license defense attorneys represent:

• Doctors
• Surgeons
• Nurses
• Dentists
• Dental assistants
• Hygienists
• Anesthesiologists
• Psychologists
• Psychiatrists
• Chiropractors
• Plastic surgeons

The most common reason for license suspension in Tennessee is drug charges. In addition to taking on cases involving illegal drug possession or use, we represent healthcare professionals in cases involving DUI, fraud, malpractice, alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, and assault. Regardless of the circumstances, we can offer knowledgeable guidance and counsel.

Your future is too important to leave to chance. For more information or to schedule your confidential strategy session with one of our skilled lawyers, call (615) 265-6383.
