OPD will investigate any complaint against a licensee, no matter where the complaint originates. When our New York professional license defense attorneys get involved with OPD complaints we thoroughly analyze the case to prepare a defense strategy that best suits each clients unique and individualized concerns.

Sometimes these investigations will go no further than the discovery stage if we can successfully show that the complaint has no merit. However, if it is determined by the OPD investigator that the complaint has merit, a more formal review process will begin. We represent our clients at every stage of the OPD process. Our experience can help close cases or reduce any repercussions to the lowest penalty possible.

One wrong statement at any stage of the OPD process can hinder your chances of a successful outcome. During each stage of the investigation or formal review, our lawyers advise and counsel you on the appropriate actions to take at each step.

Our attorneys have over 50 years combined experience and a proven track record in guiding clients through the OPD process.

Our lawyers are available to represent licensed professionals, including Dentists, Pharmacists, Podiatrists, Chiropractors, Acupuncturists, Physical Therapists, Nurses, Certified Nursing Assistants (“CNA”), Accountants, Architects, Geologists, Land Surveyors, Beauticians, and many other professions throughout New York State.

Jordan Fensterman is the partner in charge of overseeing all professional disciplinary cases. Partners Michael Bass, Denise Buda, and Richard Thomas also routinely defend clients in OPD matters throughout New York State
