At Melick, Porter & Shea, the last few years has seen tremendous growth and expansion of our long-standing Health Care Practice Group. With the recent addition to the group of several, experienced, senior trial attorneys who concentrate their practice in the defense of medical professionals and institutions, our work in this area has grown significantly. Our attorneys defend physicians, dentists, nurses, therapists, hospitals, nursing homes and other medical professionals and institutions against allegations ranging from medical malpractice and professional misconduct to cases of alleged discriminatory or other workplace-related behavior.

The Health Care Practice Group at Melick, Porter & Shea understands
that the successful defense of medical malpractice actions require
comprehensive investigation, thorough preparation and compelling
presentation. Our attorneys
are continually expanding and upgrading their medical and trial
knowledge. We routinely
employ cutting-edge medical technology, digital imaging, graphic
illustrations and animations at trial with the assistance of top
consultants to produce the best possible results for our clients.
Similarly, in light of the increasingly pro-active approach of
state disciplinary agencies in investigating complaints against
healthcare professionals, our experience in these matters and our
reputation with these agencies give our clients an edge in exonerating
themselves or in reaching an acceptable accord.
We also understand and promote the use of strong risk management tools
to help combat future claims for our clients.
Our attorneys regularly counsel medical providers and administrators
on the best methods of preventing litigation while exercising sound
medical judgment. We have also been active in providing training and
other seminars for our clients, their management and/or employees on
such diverse areas as workplace discrimination, HIPAA compliance and
sexual harassment. For further information please contact our Health Care Practice Group at HealthcarePG@melicklaw.com.
