Frequently Asked Questions About Professional License Defense
When your professional license is challenged, our professional license defense attorneys at Todd Neal Law, PA, can help answer your questions. Here are answers to some common questions our clients ask about professional license defense in Raleigh, North Carolina.
What immediate steps should I take after receiving a licensing board complaint?
If you receive a notice or complaint from your licensing board, do not respond without first consulting an attorney. Any statements you make could impact your case. Document everything related to the complaint, gather relevant records and contact a professional license defense attorney immediately to protect your rights and craft an appropriate response strategy.
Will I be able to continue practicing during an investigation?
In most cases, professionals can continue practicing while under investigation. However, this depends on the nature of the allegations and whether the board issues an emergency suspension. We work diligently to help maintain your ability to practice while defending against the complaints.
What options do I have if I disagree with the licensing board’s decision?
You have the right to appeal most licensing board decisions. Appeals must typically be filed within a specific time frame and follow strict procedural requirements. Our firm can help you through the appeals process, whether through internal board procedures or through the court system, when necessary.
