Phoenix Professional License Defense Lawyer
Life quickly becomes difficult for one who loses their ability to earn a living. This is exactly what can happen to a person who is at risk of having their professional license suspended or revoked. While many believe that there is “nothing they can do,” when they receive a Notice from their licensing board, the truth of the matter is that there are options. It may be possible to outright defend against the allegations or to reach an arrangement which allows the person to continue in their profession without interruption. Retaining an experienced attorney is a crucial step towards making sure your rights are protected and that you are taking the best path forward. Bretton Barber is a Phoenix professional license defense lawyer who assists individuals across a wide range of professions. Contact us today if you are an Arizona resident who needs assistance with misconduct allegations or if you need representation in regard to obtaining your license.
Phoenix, AZ attorney assisting professionals facing disciplinary proceedings or the possible denial of a license
Individuals who face disciplinary proceedings before the licensing board often have no previous interaction with legal or administrative proceedings. It is understandable that one may believe that they are at the mercy of the Board and that they have no options. Quite often, however, it is possible to reach a resolution with the Board in which a professional is able to maintain working status by meeting certain requirements. There are also situations in which the accusations against one are simply false and, as a result, a defense may be mounted. Bretton Barber is a professional license defense attorney who is able to assist individuals in Phoenix, and throughout Arizona, with such situations. Individuals we represent include nurses, physicians, real estate agents, counselors and mental health professionals, and more. Our firm believes that everyone is entitled to aggressive and effective representation and will work to ensure that your rights will be protected.
Bretton will use your initial consultation to review the allegations against you and to give you an honest assessment of the situation. If necessary our firm will retain an investigator to assist with the matter and we will make sure that you know what to expect as the case moves forward. At the initial stage of the case, which occurs before a given profession’s licensing board, we will attempt to reach a resolution while continuing to build the case. If a favorable outcome is not reached then we will file any necessary licensing appeals before an Administrative Law Judge. Bretton is a seasoned trial attorney and will guide you through an Administrative Law trial. If necessary, we are able to appeal the decision to an even higher court as well. Our firm is founded on the idea that everyone is entitled to effective representation and respect and our lawyer brings this approach to each and every case we handle.
