NEW YORK CITY HEALTH CARE FRAUD DEFENSE LAWYERS
NEW YORK CITY MEDICARE FRAUD ATTORNEYS
Representing clients in health care fraud cases, including Medicare fraud and insurance fraud cases is an extremely serious task that should be left to the experienced attorneys, not just any criminal defense lawyer. At Joseph Potashnik and Associates PLLC, our New York City Medicare fraud and health care fraud attorneys represent medical practices, healthcare institutions, as well individual physicians and other providers in matters concerning Medicare fraud, Medicaid fraud, and health insurance fraud.
The U.S. health care system is a complex system of various interactions between payors, providers, and patients, in fact so complex that it is often difficult to tell an honest error from deliberate fraud. When you or your business are target to a criminal investigation, our New York City healthcare fraud attorneys will carefully review the details to determine the best line of defense and mitigate future damages.

Whether it is you or your business that is the target of an administrative or a criminal health care fraud or Medicare fraud investigation, do not entrust your career, livelihood, and even your freedom to just any criminal attorney not experienced in complex health care fraud representations. Our New York City white collar defense lawyers have vast experience in dealing with

Not every criminal probe results in criminal charges. If we get involved at an early stage of the investigation, we can in many cases prevent criminal charges from being brought in the first place. If charges are brought, we will labor to have them reduced or dismissed. If necessary, our experienced trial lawyers who have handled hundreds of criminal trials will take the case to trial.
New York Medical License Defense Lawyers
A physician accused of a health care fraud crime may be terminated from participating in Medicare, Medicaid, or another federally sponsored program or denied hospital privileges before actually being found guilty in court! Pleading guilty to a crime or losing a trial means an inevitable disciplinary action by a licensing agency and potentially losing the medical license.
We are amongst very few law firms in the New York Metropolitan Area that focuses on defending physicians and nurses in disciplinary and licensing matters.
If you are under investigation for Medicare fraud or health insurance fraud, you need to talk to us! Call our downtown office to schedule a confidential review of your case.
