     Most recently, in defense of physicians, McColl & McColloch has not only developed expertise of its own but has also assembled a team of experts to quickly analyze and show the government its own mistakes in the areas of interpreting the medical CPT insurance codes, proper sampling techniques, and accounting and medical billing procedures. McColl & McColloch take pride in being aggressive, extremely knowledgeable in the law, imaginative and resourceful, persistent and committed to obtaining the client's objective through the use of a teamwork approach, and using expertise drawn from across the nation. The firm has handled cases in 15 different states and the District of Columbia, in addition to Texas.

     Over the years, the law firm of McColl & McColloch has represented physicians or other medical providers in investigations and/or accusations of criminal fraud, with these results:

• in several cases, prosecutions have been diverted altogether
• in one case where McColl was hired, the judge's preliminary sentence for a physician was cut in half
• in one of the cases, Arch McColl was actively involved in successfully fighting the attempted extradition by the U.S. government of an American psychiatrist hiding in England.  This was another case he solved while saving the doctor's medical license.
