DENTAL COUNSEL / MEDICAL LAWYERS

Why Intimidating Patients Is Wrong — and Ethically Rotten:

1. Abuse of Power
Lawyers are in positions of authority and legal knowledge. Using that to scare or silence a patient who may already be suffering is manipulative and abusive. It's the opposite of what legal professionals are supposed to do.

2. Violation of Legal Ethics
Lawyers are bound by professional conduct rules. Threatening or intimidating a vulnerable party—especially without proper legal grounds—is a violation of those ethical codes. It could warrant disciplinary action or disbarment.

3. Silencing Legitimate Concerns
When a lawyer tries to shut down a patient's complaint with legal threats, they’re not protecting justice—they're shielding negligence or wrongdoing. This blocks accountability in the medical system.

4. Contributing to Medical Mistrust
Patients already face hurdles in speaking up about mistreatment or injury. Lawyers who intimidate patients make it harder to report harm and erode trust in the medical and legal professions.

5. Profiting Off Harm
If a lawyer’s job is to protect a healthcare provider at all costs—even when the provider was clearly in the wrong—they’re prioritizing money and reputation over truth and justice. That’s not advocacy; it’s damage control at the expense of real people.

Some medical lawyers act unethically by intimidating patients to protect healthcare institutions, even when there is valid evidence of harm. This behavior undermines trust, blocks justice, and violates the professional standards they are sworn to uphold.

Report to the State Bar Association Lawyers are bound by ethical rules, like the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct. If a medical lawyer is intimidating patients: File a complaint with their state’s bar or disciplinary board. You don’t need to be a lawyer to do this. Provide as much documentation as possible: emails, letters, voicemails, or witness accounts. Why it matters: A finding of misconduct can lead to discipline, suspension, or even disbarment.
