During normal business hours, you can reach an attorney by dialing 215-955-8585. Tell the receptionist that you must speak with an attorney regarding a patient care issue.
If you need to speak with an attorney after 5:00 p.m. during the week, or over the weekend, call the TJUH page operator and ask to speak to the attorney on call.
If you receive a subpoena for medical records, please consult your departmental administrator, who should have a copy of TJU’s policy on the release of medical records. If you receive any other type of legal correspondence, please contact University Counsel at
215-955-8585 and ask to speak with an attorney.
While the Office of University Counsel provides legal services on behalf of the University and not individual employees, our office would be glad to refer you to outside counsel.
