We represent clients engaged in a wide variety of professions on both civil claims and disciplinary action initiated by licensing or oversight boards.

With more than 30 years of experience defending professionals against negligence claims, our AV-rated* law firm understands how to protect your career as well as resolve the immediate legal issue. We handle the defense of professional liability claims in such fields as the following:

We offer highly individualized representation that focuses on the facts essential to proof of liability and the damages alleged by the plaintiff. Many professional negligence claims will generate parallel disciplinary proceedings before licensing boards. For substantiated claims, these can result in sanctions ranging from a warning to suspension or revocation of a professional license. Administrative disciplinary investigations and hearings must be handled with extreme care. Even attorneys who must respond to charges from the State Bar of Arizona should consider the advantages of an advocate who can protect them from mistakes and serve as a credible intermediary throughout the proceedings.
