Professional Disciplinary Proceedings

Facing disciplinary action can be one of the most stressful experiences in your professional career. Allegations against you can originate from a variety of sources, including:

  • A patient or family member
  • A client or customer
  • A colleague or employer
  • A spouse or significant other

Common complaints leading to disciplinary action can include accusations of neglect, incompetence, malpractice, or misconduct. Criminal charges, such as drug or alcohol abuse, theft, fraud, or domestic violence, can also trigger disciplinary reviews—even if you’re found not guilty of the crime.

If you’re under investigation by a licensing board, don’t make the mistake of speaking with investigators without representation. Contact J. Haskins Law to ensure your rights and professional reputation are protected.

Character and Fitness Concerns

In addition to defending against allegations of professional misconduct, J. Haskins Law also represents individuals facing character and fitness concerns related to their professional licenses. These issues can arise during the initial licensing process or as a result of a disciplinary investigation. Whether you’re seeking to obtain or maintain your professional license, we’re here to help you address any concerns about your character and fitness.
