Attorney - Negin Yamini
California law may require you to possess a license to practice, depending on your job. The state has regulatory agencies responsible for licensing businesses, professionals, and occupations in the medical, legal, service, and construction industries. Obtaining a professional license requires years of training, exams, and continued dedication to the practice.
However, a single complaint or criminal charge can prompt the state licensing boards to investigate your practice and suspend or revoke your professional license. A revoked or suspended license can result in many consequences, including losing your career and source of income.

Becoming a California registered nurse takes time, money, and effort. Nurses are often subject to disciplinary action despite being among the most important healthcare workers. The California Board of Registered Nursing deals with thousands of complaints annually. There are numerous reasons why your California nursing license could be revoked or suspended. The main reasons include insufficient records, drug abuse problems, and not providing the necessary level of care.
Patients sometimes hold nurses to unattainable standards. Even though you do everything by the book, a patient could still accuse you of misconduct. However, you could also make an honest mistake and face disciplinary action. Working over long periods makes it easier for one to make a mistake.
No matter the professional disciplinary action, our attorneys will treat you with the utmost respect. We will fight for the most favorable outcome possible in your case.

Our Santa Cruz License Attorney team has assisted numerous occupational therapy practitioners whose practicing licenses were in jeopardy. Substance abuse, problems during training, negligence or incompetence, and providing treatments outside of one's area of specialty are some of the things that could jeopardize one's occupational therapy license.
The factors mentioned above have the potential to severely damage your professional reputation. We at Santa Cruz License Attorney can help you overcome these obstacles and build a strong defense to counter these unfounded accusations.
