CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEYS FOR LICENSED PROFESSIONALS IN NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY

Criminal convictions and criminal records can have a devastating effect on any licensed professional’s career. The damage is even more profound when a healthcare professional is charged or convicted of a crime. Virtually in any jurisdiction, a criminal conviction of a physician, dentist, nurse, or any other licensed healthcare professional will lead to a disciplinary action by the state licensing agency. As the result, the licensee may have his or her license revoked, suspended, or restricted. Hospital privileges and insurance participation may be terminated. A conviction or entering a guilty plea may effectively put an end to your medical field career.
