WHO GOVERNS MEDICAL LICENSES IN NEW JERSEY?

The New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners is the government agency overseeing physician licensing, discipline, and scope of practice in the state. You can review regulations and forms at the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners website. If you’re contacted by investigators from the Board or from other law enforcement agencies-like the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)-you’re under scrutiny for infractions, and there could be 1 or more government agencies looking into your conduct.

Penalties for Violations

If you're found responsible for misconduct or violations before the New Jersey Board, this can result in serious penalties, including:

• Suspension or Revocation of License
• Significant Financial Fines
• Probation or Mandatory Monitoring
• Public Reprimand and Damage to Your Reputation

Additionally, you can face additional criminal charges if your wrongdoing violates any state or federal law. For example, improper prescription practices can, sometimes, trigger federal investigations under the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 841, et seq.).

Crimes and Punishment

Medical professionals ARE NOT immune to criminal liability. Many people think that their license protects them, but it's not true. If you are accused of:

• Prescription Fraud
• Insurance Fraud
• Unlawful Distribution of Narcotics
• Sexual Misconduct with Patients
• Financial Exploitation of Clients

you coud potentially be subject to charges under both New Jersey law and federal statutes. Prosecutors on a state and federal level might use evidence gathered by the state licensing boards to go get convictions that carry prison sentences, major fines, and permanent loss of licensure.

STRATEGIES FOR DEFENDING NEW JERSEY MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS

Our criminal defense law firm is known for only focusing on legal solutions which get you the best possible outcome. When a physician’s license is on the line, we take a multi-pronged approach to save your license, career, and personal life:

1. Early Intervention: We reach out to all the bodies investigating you, such as the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners, before formal charges are filed to mitigate risk.
2. Evidence Review: We examine every piece of evidence, from patient charts to pharmacy records. If there is missing or unreliable data, we argue for dismissal or a reduction in penalties. We will look for evidence to be striked out from the record, if it's possible - to weaken the prosecutors case.
3. Compliance Analysis: We show that you followed the standard of care guidelines-and if you deviated, we explain mitigating circumstances.
4. Negotiation and Settlement: Where possible, we always push for a settlement that avoids severe sanctions like full license revocation.
5. Litigation Preparedness: If negotiations fail, we are unafraid to fight in administrative hearings or court, aiming to clear your name completely.

We have offices throughout the USA.

We are recognized as a top rated state, and federal, criminal defense law firm.
