California License Board and Peer Review Process Defense Attorney

If any accusations regarding quality of medical care or disciplinary charges are brought against you, the investigation can result in a loss of license, privileges, livelihood, and denial or termination of staff privileges. If a health care facility or clinic moves to deny or terminate staff privileges, membership, or employment, including failure or refusal to renew a contract, or to renew, extend, or re-establish any staff privileges, and the action is based on medical disciplinary cause or reason, our offices are ready to assist you. Our legal services extend to any medical, psychological, marriage and family therapy, social work, dental, or podiatric professionals.

Medical disciplinary cause or reason means those aspects of the liceneiate's competence or professional conduct that are responsible and likely to be detrimental to patients' safety or to the delivery of patient care. In such cases, the knowledgeable advice and able representation of a medical board and hospital peer review attorney like William P. Lucke can make a crucial difference in your career and your future.
