Steps to Find a Good False Claims Lawyer

Are you misprescribed or over prescribed by a doctor? Have you observed incompetent and/or negligent practice of medicine by a healthcare professional? Did you notice the use of illegal narcotics/substances by a physician, faking or making wrong entries in any patient chart by a doctor? Didn’t the chemist give you an invoice for your purchase?



If your answer to any of the above-mentioned questions is ‘yes’, it's important to have the right medical compliance attorney on your side. A healthcare compliance lawyer will help you sue and receive compensation from the responsible doctor or medical center.
Below are a few steps to find a good false claims attorney
  1. Create a list of local false claims attorneys –When creating your list; include the lawyers’ name, phone number, email address, and website address. You can find nearby attorneys by:
  • Scanning through the internet.
  • Visiting your local or state bar association’s website.
  1. Get referrals from friends, family members, or close relatives for reputable medical fraud attorneys.
  2. Review each compliance attorney’s website. You can narrow your list further by meticulously reviewing the website of each lawyer on your list. Some things that must look for include:
  • Lawyers’ background information
  • Lawyers’ expertise and experience
  • Lawyers’ educational background and work history
  1. Prepare to ask about the lawyer’s expertise and experience. Some important questions you should ask include:
What is your strategy for my case?
  1. Think about whether or not you are comfortable with the lawyer. It is important to have a good relationship with your lawyer so that you can lay all your cards on the table. If you're not comfortable, or you're bothered your lawyer is less involved in representing your interests and more interested in earning a ton of money, don't work with that attorney.
