Your client gets the medication. You get the bill at settlement.
We dispense to personal injury and post-operative patients on a lien or letter of protection. Nothing is collected from the patient at the counter, nothing is charged to your firm, and the person who decides your reduction is the person who answers the phone.

Personal injury attorneys
Your client cannot afford the prescription, stops taking it, and the treatment record develops a hole the defense will point at. We close that hole and hand you documentation the demand can actually use.
What your firm getsSurgery centers & surgeons
Your patient is discharged at four o'clock and the analgesic never gets filled. The call comes to your office that night. Send the order the day before and the medication meets them at the door instead.
How the discharge program runsInjured patients
You were hurt, you have a lawyer, and you cannot pay for the medication you were prescribed. You do not pay us today. The cost waits for your case and is settled out of it, before you receive your share.
What it means for youMost “lien pharmacy” companies have never filled a prescription.
The national players in this category are card programs. They sign you up, hand your client a plastic card, and route the fill to whichever chain pharmacy is nearest. Useful — but there is a middleman between you and the counter, and at settlement your reduction request goes into a queue.
We are the counter. Family Pharmacy Services of Beverly Hills, Inc. is a licensed California retail pharmacy on Wilshire Boulevard. The pharmacist who fills your client's prescription, the person who sends the itemised statement, and the person who authorises the reduction all work in the same room.

- Enrolment, portal, onboarding call
- Fill happens at a chain counter that has never heard of the case
- Reduction request goes to a queue
- No delivery to your surgery center
- Nobody to call at 5:40pm
This pharmacy
- A phone call and a protection letter
- We dispense it ourselves and counsel the patient
- Reduction decided by the owner
- Same-day courier across LA County
- You get a mobile number
Four steps. Three of them are ours.
There is no portal to onboard onto and no agreement for your firm to sign. The whole intake is a phone call and one letter.
Send us the patient
Call, text, or fax the referral. We need the patient, the attorney or firm, the date of loss, and the prescription. That is the whole intake — there is no portal to onboard onto and no contract for the firm to sign.
Under 5 minutesWe confirm representation
We reach the law firm, verify the patient is represented on a contingency matter, and get the letter of protection or lien acknowledgment back in writing. If the firm will not sign, we tell you before the patient shows up — not after.
Same day, usuallyThe patient gets the medication
Picked up at the counter on Wilshire, couriered to the surgery center for discharge, or delivered to the patient's door. The patient pays nothing and is never asked for a card, a copay, or an insurance ID.
Same dayYou get the paperwork the case needs
An itemised statement goes to the firm on every fill, not a lump sum at the end. At settlement you get a final lien balance, the signed protection letter, and a reduction conversation with the person who can actually authorise one.
On every fillEverything the injury goes through, on one statement.
Medication, bracing and equipment on the same lien, from the same vendor, so nobody is reconciling four balances the week of disbursement.
Prescriptions on a lien
The full injury formulary — analgesics, NSAIDs, muscle relaxants, neuropathics, antiemetics, antibiotics, topicals — dispensed with nothing collected from the patient at the counter.
See what we dispensePost-op discharge program
Your patient's post-operative medications packed, labelled and counselled before the case is finished, and handed to them at the door instead of sent to a pharmacy queue at 6pm.
How the discharge program worksSame-day delivery
Same-day courier across Los Angeles County — to the surgery center, the law firm, or the patient's door — and next-day shipping to anywhere in California.
Delivery and coverageBraces, DME and supplies
Cervical collars, lumbar and knee braces, slings, walkers, TENS units and cold therapy — on the same lien, on the same statement, so the firm chases one vendor instead of four.
See the DME listBilling built for the case file
Itemised statements on every fill, a signed protection letter on file, a running lien ledger the firm can request any day, and a final balance and reduction conversation at settlement.
See the paperworkWorkers' compensation
First fills for accepted and disputed claims, formulary-aware dispensing, and billing to the carrier — with the lien route available where the claim is denied or delayed.
Workers' comp detailsNobody is on the hook. Not the firm, not the client.
This is the part most vendors leave vague, so here it is in plain language.
Case dropped? We write it off.
If the case is dropped, dismissed, or recovers nothing at all, call us and the balance goes away. We are not going to chase an injured person over a post-operative prescription on a case that never paid anybody.
Settled badly? We negotiate.
A policy-limits case, a liability problem, a lien stack bigger than the recovery — ask and we reduce. There is no minimum we insist on and no matrix deciding it. You are talking to the owner of the pharmacy.
No obligation, either side.
The firm never guarantees the balance and is never invoiced. The client is never sent to collections and nothing is reported to a credit bureau. Send us one patient, or a hundred, or none — there is no agreement binding anybody.
Why the paperwork still says the patient owes it
The signed agreement is a real, unconditional obligation, and that is deliberate — on purpose, for your client's benefit. A charge that only exists if the case wins is a charge the defense can argue was never incurred, which knocks it straight out of the medical specials. So the contract reads like a real bill, and the flexibility above is how we actually handle it. Ask and we will put that commitment in writing to your firm on letterhead.
What attorneys actually say before they refer.
This category has earned its reputation. Here are the four objections we hear most, and the honest version of the answer.
Are you going to inflate the bill and wreck my client's net?
We price at our usual and customary cash rate — what anyone walking in off Wilshire pays for the same drug. Ask for the price on a specific medication before you refer anybody and we will put it in writing. A pharmacy bill that survives cross-examination is worth more to your case than a big one that does not.
Will you actually reduce, or do I get a form letter?
You get a number from the owner, usually within a couple of days. Reductions turn on the gross recovery, the policy limits, the rest of the lien stack and the client's net. Ask when the demand goes out rather than when the check clears — it genuinely changes the answer.
What happens to my client if the case loses?
Contractually the patient owes a real, unconditional charge — deliberately, because a bill that only exists if the client wins is a bill the defense will argue was never incurred, and that argument lands on your damages. In practice, balances on cases that recover nothing get reduced or written off, and we do not send injury patients to collections or report to credit bureaus. Ask and that practice comes in writing.
Is there a fee, a kickback, or something I am not seeing?
No. We do not pay attorneys, physicians, case managers or marketers for referrals, and we will not accept an arrangement dressed up to look like something else. Business and Professions Code section 650 is not a grey area, and a lien built on an illegal referral is a lien the defense would love to find.
Ask before you refer
- The price list. Per drug, in writing, before a single patient is sent
- The patient agreement. The actual document your client signs
- Our protection-letter language. Send it to your risk counsel
- The no-collections commitment. In writing, on letterhead
Or email medsonliens@gmail.com and ask for the referral packet. It is four pages and it answers all of the above.
Anywhere in California. The medication has to reach the patient.
A prescription nobody picks up is worth exactly as much as one nobody wrote.
The reasons a defense attorney will not enjoy deposing us.
A real, licensed premises
Licensed by the California State Board of Pharmacy and operating from a permitted retail location at 8314 Wilshire Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211. Verifiable through the Department of Consumer Affairs.
Priced like a pharmacy
Usual and customary cash pricing, no lien surcharge, no interest, no compounded topical creams. The three things that make a lien bill look manufactured are the three things we do not do.
No referral compensation
Nothing of value changes hands for a patient — not to firms, not to physicians, not to marketers. Business and Professions Code 650 and the federal Anti-Kickback Statute both sit on this.
Only what was authorised
Records go to the firm under a signed HIPAA authorisation, limited to the injury-related dispensing. Not the patient's whole medication history. Controlled substances reported to CURES like anywhere else.
The six we get every week.
What does the patient pay?
Nothing at the counter. No copay, no deductible, no card, no cash. The balance sits on the lien until the case resolves, and it is paid out of the settlement proceeds by the law firm as part of the normal disbursement.
What does the law firm have to sign?
One letter of protection or lien acknowledgment, on firm letterhead, confirming the client is represented and that our balance will be addressed out of settlement proceeds. Most firms already have a template. There is no vendor contract, no onboarding, no software, and no fee to the firm — ever.
Are you a discount card or a real pharmacy?
A real pharmacy. Family Pharmacy Services of Beverly Hills, Inc. is a licensed California retail pharmacy at 8314 Wilshire Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211, and we dispense the medication ourselves. You are not enrolling in a network, you are calling the pharmacist who will fill the prescription.
What if the case is dropped or loses?
We write it off. A case that is dropped, dismissed or recovers nothing produces a balance we do not intend to collect — call us and it goes away. If the case settles badly, ask and we reduce it. Neither the firm nor the client is obligated to us either way: the firm is never invoiced, the client is never sent to collections, and nothing is reported to a credit bureau.
The signed agreement still reads as a real, unconditional obligation, and that is deliberate — for the client's benefit. A charge that exists only if the case wins is one the defense can argue was never incurred, which knocks it out of the medical specials. The contract looks like a real bill; the paragraph above is how we actually handle it, and we will put that in writing to your firm.
Will you reduce the lien at settlement?
Yes, and you will be negotiating with the owner rather than a call centre. Reductions depend on the recovery, the policy limits, what the other lienholders are doing, and how much of the balance is genuinely injury-related. Ask early — a reduction request that arrives with the disbursement sheet gets a worse answer than one that arrives with the demand.
How fast can you turn around a discharge?
Same day within our courier area, and generally within the hour for a scheduled post-operative case we knew about in advance. Fax or call the order in the morning and the medication meets the patient at discharge instead of sending them to a pharmacy queue on the way home.
On Wilshire, in the middle of everything.
The Wilshire corridor between Beverly Hills and mid-city is dense with plaintiff firms, orthopedic practices and outpatient surgical suites. That is not an accident of geography — it is why same-day works here.
