Overview
Butzel's attorneys have extensive experience defending professionals in the design, financial, legal, and medical industries. We advise accountants, architects, engineers, hospitals, lawyers, and physicians regarding disciplinary defense, ethics compliance, government compliance, malpractice, and risk management.
Our team understands the unique challenges and potential liability that professionals face today. We are seasoned litigators that first try to avoid the courtroom at all costs during the pre-lawsuit period. We always look to dismiss or limit cases at the earliest and most prudent juncture, but once a lawsuit is filed, we provide a sound, formidable defense.
We have significant experience representing hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and other health care institutions in criminal and civil matters. Our attorneys have acted as personal counsel for physicians and other medical professionals in malpractice cases, government regulatory matters, and disciplinary proceedings. We have represented dentists, physicians, and physical therapists before the Michigan Bureau of Health Professions Disciplinary Subcommittee. We have also represented accountants and large, national accounting firms on professional liability actions relating to taxation and other advisory activity.
