Guiding Clients Through Audits And Assisting With Compliance
Being audited by a federal government agency, such as the FBI, the Texas Office of the Inspector General (OIG) or an insurance company like Cigna or Horizon, is one of the most stressful things a business owner can experience. If you are being investigated for fraud or abuse, you need an attorney who understands the laws and can put your best defense forward. Our lawyers will aggressively represent you at every stage of the audit and argue on your behalf.
It is possible that your clinical lab is violating the law without your knowledge. Unfortunately, not being aware that your business practices violate the law is not an effective defense. We have the experience and legal knowledge needed to assess your business risks, create an effective plan to mitigate those risks and educate all involved parties. You can take control of the situation with the right advice and guidance.
