For physicians and other licensed healthcare providers, medical malpractice allegations present risks on multiple fronts. In addition to the risk of civil liability, loss of affiliations and privileges, and reputational harm, these allegations can also lead to professional licensing and disciplinary proceedings.

With offices in Cincinnati, Louisville and Boulder, we represent providers throughout Ohio, Kentucky and Colorado. If you are facing licensing or disciplinary action in connection with allegations of medical malpractice, our lawyers can defend you by all means available.
Experienced Defense Counsel for Medical Licensing and Disciplinary Matters
The risks presented by licensing or disciplinary proceedings depend on the circumstances involved. Relevant factors include not only the nature of the allegations against you and the veracity of those allegations, but also the circumstances surrounding the alleged incident of malpractice and your prior disciplinary history, if any. With this in mind, potential outcomes of licensing and disciplinary proceedings can include:
- No licensing or disciplinary action
- Reprimand
- Probation
- Fines and conditions
- License suspension
- License revocation
We defend physicians, nurses and other licensed medical professionals in licensing and disciplinary matters involving all licensing boards in Ohio, Kentucky and Colorado, including:
- State Medical Board of Ohio
- Ohio Board of Nursing
- Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure
- Kentucky Board of Nursing
- Colorado Medical Board
- Colorado State Board of Nursing
In addition to handling licensing and disciplinary matters at the board level, we also represent providers on appeal. If you face unjustified consequences due to allegations of medical malpractice, our lawyers can fight the outcome of your licensing or disciplinary proceeding in the state courts.
