In some cases, a Board or other licensing authority may seek to completely revoke your professional license, preventing you from even participating in your chosen field or furthering your career. One of the most important parts of overcoming a professional discipline action is hiring a knowledgeable administrative lawyer as soon as you learn that possible action could be taken against you. The longer you allow the wheels of investigations and the administrative state to turn against you, the harder it can be to ultimately resolve your matter with a favorable outcome. The complexity and detail oriented nature of the administrative and regulatory process should not be taken lightly. If you engage the services of an educated administrative law attorney early in the investigation and administrative process, you will be more likely to have more leverage in the negotiation and a clearer path to a victorious outcome.
