NEW YORK CHIROPRACTOR DEFENSE ATTORNEYS

Doctors who practice the fine art and science of chiropractic face the same potential of experiencing lawsuits and other litigation as do other doctors in other fields of medicine. In the event that you or your practice is facing the threat of legal action from a patient, ensuring that you retain the help of experienced and knowledgeable New York chiropractor defense attorneys is vital to securing a favorable and fair outcome. At Potashnik & Associates, we have a proven track record of success that is defined by:

• Obtaining a high number of dismissals for fraudulently filed negligence claims
• Obtaining favorable settlements in valid cases that lessen the gravity of consequences
• A nuanced understanding of chiropractic techniques in relation to medical negligence laws

Our lawyers are here to be your partners in maintaining a successful chiropractic practice. We can help you to navigate the intimidating negligence claims process and deal with the mitigation of factors that could contribute to further legal action being taken against you and your practice.

The Importance of Hiring a New York Chiropractic Defense Attorney to Avoid License Revocation

One of the biggest threats that being sued for negligence or malpractice holds is the possible revocation of your medical license should the ruling not be in your favor. We understand the process a chiropractor must go through in order to restore their license, and it is not an easy path. Should your medical license be revoked, the following conditions are stipulated by law in order to be reconsidered as a licensed medical professional in New York State:

• You must wait 3 years after license revocation before reapplying
• In-depth documents must be completed stating your case and large processing fees are to be paid in full before being considered
• The State Board of Regents will have total discretion as to whether or not your license will be restored

Clearly, hiring the best, brightest and most aggressive defense attorney is your smartest option when facing an accusation of malpractice. Should you lose your license, you will not be able to practice medicine for at least 3 years. The restoration of licensure is not guaranteed, so you must hire a defense team that will leave no stone unturned in the quest to protect your professional integrity.

If you have already lost your license due to a previous lawsuit, we can help guide you through the arduous and trying process of re-licensure. Convincing the State Board of Regents that you deserve to practice medicine again is not an easy task to accomplish. Potashnik & Associates can provide you with the support and advice needed to help instill confidence in the judges that you will not make any future medical mistakes that were related to your license revocation.

Hiring a Chiropractic Specialist Defense Attorney Versus a Generalist Medical Defense Attorney

While there are many qualified and respected medical malpractice defense attorneys in the New York area, it is important for chiropractors to hire a specialized defense team. The field of chiropractic care is different from other medical arts, and hiring an attorney who possesses a thorough understanding of chiropractic therapies can make the difference between a win that protects your future or a loss that destroys your career aspirations. By hiring the attorneys at Potashnik & Associates, you’ll be accessing a deep well of chiropractic legal knowledge that includes:

Just had my Divorce case settled 2 months ago after having a horrible experience with another firm. I couldn’t be happier with Claire Banks and Elizabeth Garvey with their outstanding professionalism in doing so with Spodek Law Group. Any time I needed questions answered they were always prompt in doing so with all my uncertainties after 30 yrs of marriage.I feel from the bottom of my heart you will NOT be disappointed with either one. Thanks a million.

Alex Zhik contacted me almost immediately when I reached out to Spodek for a consultation and was able to effectively communicate the path forward/consequences of my legal issue. I immediately agreed to hire Alex for his services and did not regret my choice. He was able to cover my case in court (with 1 day notice) and not only was he able to push my case down, he carefully negotiated a dismissal of the charge altogether. I highly recommend Spodek, and more specifically, Alex Zhik for all of your legal issues. Thanks guys!

From our initial consultation, it was evident that Alex possessed a profound understanding of criminal law and a fierce dedication to his clients rights. Throughout the entirety of my case, Alex exhibited unparalleled professionalism and unwavering commitment. What sets Alex apart is not only his legal expertise but also his genuine compassion for his clients. He took the time to thoroughly explain my case, alleviating any concerns I had along the way. His exact words were “I’m not worried about it”. His unwavering support and guidance were invaluable throughout the entire process. I am immensely grateful for Alex's exceptional legal representation and wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of a skilled criminal defense attorney.

I don’t know where to start, I can write a novel about this firm, but one thing I will say is that having my best interest was their main priority since the beginning of my case which was back in Winter 2019. Miss Claire Banks, one of the best Attorneys in the firm represented me very well and was very professional, respectful, and truthful. Not once did she leave me in the dark, in fact she presented all options and routes that could possibly be considered for my case and she reinsured me that no matter what I decided to do, her and the team will have my back and that’s exactly what happened. Not only will I be liberated from this case, also, I will enjoy my freedom and continue to be a mother to my first born son and will have no restrictions with accomplishing my goals in life. Now that’s what I call victory!! I thank the Lord, My mother, Claire, and the Spodek team for standing by me and fighting with me. Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have the opportunity to work with this team. I’m very satisfied, very pleased with their performance, their hard work, and their diligence. Thank you team!

I can't recommend Alex Zhik and Spodek Law Firm highly enough for their exceptional legal representation and personal mentorship. From the moment I engaged their services in October 2022, Alex took the time to understand my case thoroughly and provided guidance every step of the way. Alex's dedication to my case went above and beyond my expectations. His expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome were evident throughout the entire process. He took the time to mentor me, ensuring I understood the legal complexities involved to make informed decisions. Alex is the kind of guy you would want to have a beer with and has made a meaningful impact on me. I also want to acknowledge Todd Spodek, the leader of the firm, who played a crucial role in my case. His leadership and support bolstered the efforts of Alex, and his involvement highlighted the firm's commitment to excellence. Thanks to Alex Zhik and Todd Spodek, I achieved the outcome I desired, and I am incredibly grateful for their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. If you're in need of legal representation, look no further than this outstanding team.
