Fort Lauderdale Professional Responsibility Lawyers

A client's dissatisfaction with services received can threaten a professional's right to practice. If you are a professional facing an inquiry or hearing by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, attempting to handle the matter by yourself can be risky.

Protecting Licensed Professionals in Disciplinary Actions

The hearing and disciplinary procedures for the various professions licensed by the State of Florida vary. Usually, there is a two stage process: a fact-finding stage and a possible formal hearing before a board of peer professionals and state officials. Koch & Trushin, P.A. has a record of success protecting professionals at both stages of the process.

Often, the review process can be nipped in the bud by an informative and properly drawn response to the fact-finding inquiry. Our firm can help you prepare a response that demonstrates your professional responsibility and regulatory compliance. If the review proceeds to the second stage, we can prepare a comprehensive response and represent you at the formal administrative Board hearing.

Each of the licensing boards has its own procedures, its own conception of professional responsibility, and a unique institutional personality. Our attorneys are experienced in dealing with many of the diverse issues which can come before these boards and will work to preserve your right to practice your profession.

Many allegations of fraud, negligence, malpractice or misconduct against licensed professionals are completely unfounded. You should not compromise your ability to practice your profession by making any admissions during the fact-finding procedure, nor should you waive any rights before you talk with an experienced professional liability attorney.

Koch & Trushin, P.A. will work to preserve your livelihood, your rights, and your reputation.
