Healthcare

We are experienced in many of the specialties comprising the modern practice of Health Care Law. Our practice includes medical malpractice defense, health care provider licensing, telemedicine, health care system credentialing, provider contracting, compliance and regulatory matters.

With the proliferation of medical malpractice attorneys and lawsuits in the State of Florida, the most significant portion of our healthcare practice is defending medical malpractice case.  The attorneys at Adams | Coogler have over 100 years combined experience representing medical malpractice defendants.  We have litigated hundreds of medical malpractice cases from beginning to end, including to verdict, in both federal and state courts.

Successful medical malpractice defense lawyers are first and foremost trial lawyers.  The plaintiff’s lawyers know that a defense verdict, not settlement, is a preferred and viable option for our clients.  This “trial first” approach to medical malpractice cases gives our clients important options.  They may either vindicate their care at trial or achieve the best possible result for those cases that truly merit settlement.

Our attorneys represent health care providers with disciplinary matters before the Florida Department of Health. We have successfully represented physicians, nurses, physical therapists, dentists, psychologists, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses, certified registered nurse anesthetists, chiropractors, podiatrists, and pharmacists in such matters.

The diverse specialties of our attorneys enable us to offer full-service representation to our health care clients. We regularly advise them on the business aspects of their practices, including employment agreements, corporate organization, health care system contracting and regulatory compliance.
