Serving Gulfport, Hattiesburg, and all of South Mississippi- Nationwide cases accepted on a case-by-case basis.
Health care fraud charges strike fast, hit hard, and can change your life in an instant. For medical providers, clinic owners, pharmacies, hospice agencies, and everyday employees, simply receiving a subpoena or audit notice can ignite fear — because federal health care fraud investigations are powerful, complex, and aggressively prosecuted.
And in Mississippi, no one understands these cases — or defends them — like Sean Buckley, one of the most sought-after federal criminal defense attorneys in the state of Mississippi and a nationally recognized authority in health care fraud defense.
Why Health Care Fraud Allegations Are So Dangerous:
Federal agencies such as FBI, HHS-OIG, IRS-CI, DOJ, and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices invest enormous resources into identifying perceived fraud within:
Medicare
Medicaid
TRICARE (Mr. Buckley's largest win against the government in a $100 Million Tricare fraud case- NOT GUILTY verdict!
Private insurance
Home health & hospice
Clinics & medical groups
Pharmacies
DME providers
Labs and diagnostic testing
The government often interprets billing mistakes, coding disputes, patient demand, or medical judgment calls as intentional fraud. Even honest professionals can become targets.
The stakes are enormous:
Felony convictions
Federal prison
Loss of medical license
Financial ruin
Exclusion from Medicare/Medicaid
Irreversible reputational harm
This is not the moment to hope the government “understands.”This is the moment to fight — strategically and aggressively.
Why Innocent Providers Get Caught in the Crossfire:
Health care is complicated. Billing systems are complicated. Regulations are complicated.
Yet federal prosecutors often simplify these cases down to:
“If a claim was paid, someone must have intended to defraud.”
That’s not true. And that’s where elite defense strategy makes all the difference.
Many cases involve:
Coding errors
Documentation inconsistencies
Disputed medical necessity
Misinterpreted communications
Rogue employees
Unclear policies
Overzealous auditors
Complex electronic record systems
A strong defense exposes this nuance — and shows the truth.
