Drug diversion — the illegal distribution or misuse of prescription medications — has become a major focus for federal and state prosecutors in Wisconsin. When physicians are accused of diverting controlled substances, the consequences are severe and swift. 

In Milwaukee, doctors under investigation for drug diversion often face not only criminal charges but also the potential loss of their medical license, DEA registration, and professional reputation.

At our Milwaukee-based firm, we represent physicians and healthcare professionals facing white collar criminal charges, healthcare fraud, and government investigations. Recognized as one of Wisconsin’s premier trial and litigation firms, we approach these cases with the honesty, candor, and strategic depth they demand. Our Wisconsin white-collar criminal defense lawyers prepare each case as if it is going to trial because we believe that level of preparation is the foundation for every successful outcome.
