The Importance of Early Legal Representation

When under investigation by the Dental Board, seek legal counsel immediately. Early intervention by attorneys familiar with Dental Board investigations can significantly impact the outcome.

Our team has decades of experience in dealing with these issues, from the initial complaint and investigation to negotiations with Board investigators and, if necessary, formal proceedings.

Negotiating with Knowledge

Our attorneys often negotiate favorable settlements for our clients, potentially avoiding the need for a formal hearing. This approach can save time, resources, and the potential stress of a prolonged legal battle.

Valuable Insider Experience

Our team includes a member with firsthand experience in the Attorney General's office, specifically prosecuting Dental Board matters. This unique perspective is valuable in understanding the strategies and priorities of the prosecuting side. Such insight allows us to anticipate challenges and develop more effective defense strategies for our clients.

Comprehensive Defense Strategies

Leveraging this experience, we create defense strategies that address the specific allegations our clients face. We ensure that every aspect of the case is thoroughly examined, from the validity of the complaint to the adherence to proper procedures by the Board.

The Defense Process: A Step-by-Step Overview

Upon learning of an investigation, our immediate goal is to understand the nature and scope of the allegations. We work closely with our clients to gather all relevant facts and documents, ensuring that we have a comprehensive understanding of the case.

Response and Representation

When a dentist faces an investigation by the Dental Board, our attorneys at Wood and Morgan create initial responses, ensuring they are comprehensive, accurate, and strategically sound. We prepare and submit any necessary documentation and responses to the Board.

During this phase, we focus on presenting our client's case in the most favorable light, addressing the allegations while highlighting the dentist’s professional integrity and commitment to patient care.

Our representation extends beyond paperwork. We are the primary point of communication between our client and the Board. This role involves articulating our client’s position and carefully managing the discourse's tone and direction. We defend our clients' rights throughout this process and clearly communicate their perspectives and explanations.

By handling all interactions, we shield our clients from the direct stress of these exchanges and allow them to continue focusing on their practice and patients.

Negotiations and Settlements

Our goal in negotiating with the Dental Board is always to reach an amicable resolution that minimizes any negative impact on the dentist’s practice and professional reputation. We approach these negotiations with a deep understanding of the Dental Board's concerns and priorities, enabling us to propose acceptable solutions to both parties.

In these negotiations, we explore every possible avenue for a settlement that can preclude the need for a formal hearing. This process may involve discussing alternative disciplinary actions, such as additional training or temporary supervision, which can be less damaging to a dentist's career than formal sanctions.

Our experience has shown that well-negotiated settlements can often preserve a dentist's ability to practice without the stigma of a board hearing.

Preparing for a Formal Hearing

If negotiations do not result in a settlement, we prepare for a formal hearing. This preparation involves a comprehensive review of the case, gathering all relevant evidence, and identifying key witnesses.

Our attorneys work closely with these witnesses, preparing them for their testimonies to ensure that they effectively support our client’s case.

Developing a strong legal argument is at the heart of our hearing preparation. This involves not just an understanding of the law and previous case precedents but also a grasp of our client’s specific situation.

We prepare to address each allegation point-by-point, countering with evidence, legal principles, and witness testimonies. Our aim is to dismantle the allegations against our client systematically and persuasively.

Ongoing Support and Counsel

Recognizing the emotional and professional toll such proceedings can take on our clients, we provide continuous support and counsel throughout the entire process. We offer guidance, reassurance, and a sympathetic ear during what can be an incredibly stressful time.

We keep our clients informed at every stage, ensuring they understand the status of their case, the strategies we are using, and what to expect next. This transparency helps reduce the anxiety and uncertainty accompanying Dental Board investigations and hearings.

We stand alongside our clients not just as legal representatives but as partners and advocates, committed to protecting their interests and supporting them throughout the process.
