Impact of Decision of Whether to Retain an Experienced Law Firm

If you have received a letter from the Medical Board or have a pending formal hearing, you should consider retaining a firm like ours that has experience representing physicians and other licensees before the North Carolina Medical Board.  We have a good working relationship with counsel for the Medical Board and often can negotiate an acceptable resolution without the need for a formal hearing, if the complaint is not dismissed.  Disciplinary action could have a significant and permanent impact on your reputation and license, which also can substantially affect you financially and personally.  Representation at the informal stage is significantly less expensive than in a formal evidentiary hearing.  The investment in protecting your reputation, license and livelihood generally is more cost-effective in the early stages and it is our firm’s best opportunity to assist you in obtaining a favorable or acceptable outcome.
