by agencies including licensing boards, health care payment (e.g., Medicare), etc. (30%

representing such individuals. (20% of my practice)
4. Family law: I represent mental health professionals who are involved in some aspect
of family law, including special masters/parent coordinators, mediators, custody

problems they face in their work (15% of my practice).
6. Teaching: I provide continuing education workshops in risk management for mental
