Healthcare Fraud

At Jonas Legal Group, we subspecialize in defending Healthcare Fraud cases. In 2021, Jonas Legal Group won an acquittal on all 36 counts charged as part of the largest Healthcare Fraud in California history.

If you are facing charges related to healthcare fraud, it is crucial to have experienced legal representation. Our skilled criminal defense lawyers can help investigate the case, challenge evidence, and protect your rights throughout the legal process. Often, we are able to prevent charges from being filed, get charges dismissed, or negotiate a beneficial resolution. However, in cases that get all the way to trial, we are extremely experienced and skilled trial attorneys.

Healthcare fraud is a serious crime that involves intentional deception or misrepresentation to gain financial benefit from healthcare programs, such as Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance companies. This can include a wide range of illegal activities, such as paying or accepting kickbacks or patient referrals, submitting false claims for medical services that were never provided, overbilling for services, or misrepresenting the type of treatment or services provided to patients.

Healthcare fraud is not limited to medical professionals; it can involve anyone from healthcare providers, to patients, to insurance companies. Federal and state agencies aggressively pursue healthcare fraud cases, and penalties for conviction can include substantial fines, restitution, and imprisonment.
