John Rivas

John Rivas worked to help me continue practicing when I recovered from a severe illness by representing me before the medical licensing board. He has always been honest, patient, kind, and nonjudgmental. His knowledge of the law and diplomacy before the board led to excellent results. In a world of ...greed, he has been fair, even generous with his time and expertise. I highly recommend him and his firm RivasGoldstein, LLP.

My case involved two different nursing state boards and proved a lengthy process. Nonetheless, Mr. Rivas, Kay, and the rest of this magnificent team walked me through it all (seemingly hand in hand). They answered my endless questions in a thorough and patient manner, soothed my ravaged nerves, an...d helped me get the best outcome I could've hoped for! I would recommend their services to any medical professional in need of assistance protecting their licensure.

We own a private ambulance company in the Houston metro area. We hired John Rivas back in 2008 to represent our company in a large overpayment demand from Medicare. John was extremely knowledgeable and highly experienced in the medical healthcare insurance industry. John and his attentive and dil...igent staff worked on this case for over two years through numerous appeals and met every deadline on time. John and his firm won over 85% of our claims and we finally reached a small settlement agreement with Medicare. Since that time, we have retained John as our attorney on retainer. We feel totally comfortable in knowing if we have a medical healthcare question or legal matter arise, we know we can contact his staff and get an answer to our question in a timely fashion or if John does not feel comfortable in that area of law, he will refer us to someone he knows and trusts. We highly recommend John Rivas with any type of healthcare insurance related issue. Both John and his staff exceeded our expectations. He has represented us numerous times over the past eight years and we have never been disappointed. We give John and his firm 5 Gold Stars!

I am a physician that had a complaint filed against me with the Texas Medical Board. It was a rather unique case and I truly had no idea what to expect through the whole grueling 8 month long process. Mr. Rivas and his paralegal (Mr. Reinhardt) were extremely helpful during the entire time. During... a rather anxiety provoking time, they did an excellent job at easing my concerns, yet not giving me unrealistic expectations or minimizing the issue at hand. My questions were answered quickly, and communication was excellent. I felt very comfortable and confident that I was being represented well and to the best of his ability. The outcome was better than I expected as the case was completely dismissed on my behalf. His knowledge of the inner workings of the board proved to be invaluable. I would highly recommend Mr. Rivas to anyone having to face a complaint with the Texas Medical Board.

John is an excellent attorney specializing in Health Care government regulation for my cases. I have used John several times for Health Care support and has done a great job keeping me posted of my case to assure I can continue working. John does not come alone; he has a big legal team that encom...passes various specialties i.e.. Non-Compete cases etc. I would recommend John Rivas because of his professionalism, experience and expertise. Neil Cruz
