Minnesota Professional License Defense Lawyer & Attorney

taana_logo_2There are state licensing boards in place for many professionals working within Minnesota. These professionals include doctors, nurses, attorneys, judges, psychologists, psychiatrists, nursing assistants, and so many more. They take licensing exams to obtain their licenses after they meet a strict set of educational requirements.

There are cases in which an accusation of professional misconduct may result in the suspension or revocation of a professional license. A nursing professional, for instance, can face a misconduct investigation based on allegations, such as practicing under the influence of drugs or alcohol, gross negligence, abuse of patients, and failure to properly maintain medical records. These investigations are a serious matter, as it could lead to license suspension or revocation if the person is unable to overcome the accusations. The loss of a license could completely ruin a career. Even a temporary suspension may pose challenges in finding another position.

You do have the right to have an attorney present during your hearing to present evidence that no violation took place or that the violation was not as severe as what it may appear to be.
