  • Are Professional License Cases Confidential?

    The cost of license defense is an investment. The investigation is typically confidential. When charges are filed or a public reprimand, suspension, or revocation is imposed, the details of the charges are made public. This is why early, decisive resolution is crucial.

  • Can I Appeal a License Decision?

    Yes. You have the right to appeal a decision through the court system after a hearing, whose outcome was not in your favor. We will handle the entire process for you. This is known as the license appeal process.

  • What Happens If I Lose My Professional License?

    If you lose your license, you will not be able to practice your profession in the state ever again. We will vigorously fight this outcome, working to achieve either probation or a negotiated settlement.

  • How Long Does a License Investigation Take?

    The timeline varies significantly. Simple cases would be resolved in a few months. However, complex license investigation matters may take 6 to 18 months and possibly longer. Our goal is to expedite the process by providing well-organised, helpful responses delivered on time.

The defense will rely on the use of qualified expert witnesses to establish the proper standard of care, conduct a detailed review of records, and prove that the conduct did not fall below regulatory standards.

    Allegations of impairment due to drugs or alcohol often lead to emergency actions. Should you have license problems because of drugs or alcohol, we work quickly to get you enrolled in any diversion program (when appropriate), provide proof of treatment, and argue against losing your license. We advocate for drug or alcohol testing instead.

We aggressively defend individuals charged with criminal offenses, particularly those involving DUI and professional license defense.
