Compliance with federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulations is essential for healthcare providers who prescribe and dispense Controlled Substances (Schedules II through V). Our attorneys are widely regarded as authority figures in DEA compliance and have developed industry programs that establish integrity guidelines and ensure regulatory compliance. Our firm works with clients to address DEA audits and compliance actions, ensuring adherence to strict DEA requirements and regulations.
We leverage decades of government enforcement experience to represent healthcare providers during investigations, audits, and administrative actions by the DEA. We help clients understand federal (DEA) and state (California Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement) regulatory compliance requirements and avoid adverse actions relating to non-compliance, including monetary penalties, loss of DEA certification, licensing actions, and potential criminal sanctions.
