Professional Licensing Defense

Concord Professional Licensing Defense Attorneys

When you have invested years of your life obtaining a professional education and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars on a professional education, your professional license constitutes a very valuable asset. At The Crisp Law Firm, PLLC, we bring over 45 years of collective legal experience to the task of providing exemplary legal services and representation before licensing agencies. 

Our New Hampshire professional license defense attorneys provide representation in responding to Complaints involving professional misconduct, investigations, negotiating possible resolutions, appearances before licensing boards, and administrative hearings. We work closely with criminal defense attorneys to mitigate penalties for criminal offenses and insurance counsel regarding civil claims. If you’ve recently learned that you are the subject of a Complaint or an investigation, it’s important to take swift action.

Professionals Need Liability Insurance

If you think your defense in professional licensing matters is covered by your employment agreement, you might want to ask your employer for written confirmation that they will pay for your legal defense in professional disciplinary proceedings. The more common scenario is that your employer will notify your professional licensing board after termination of your employment and the filing of a complaint. In that case, it would be important for you to know if your professional liability insurance covers disciplinary complaints.

Fail to secure the services of a skilled and experienced New Hampshire professional licensing attorney and you could face the prospect of being unemployed and unable to respond effectively to a professional licensing board investigation. We urge all our clients to be sure their professional liability insurance provides coverage for this situation.

Don’t Rely on Your Employer: Professionals Need Liability Insurance

Although you might believe you are protected by your employer’s professional liability insurance, this assumption can be a costly mistake. If you think your defense in professional licensing matters is covered by your employment agreement, you might want to ask your employer for written confirmation that they will pay for your legal defense in professional disciplinary proceedings. The more common scenario is that your employer will be the entity that notifies your professional licensing board or agency after termination of your employment and the filing of a complaint. If you fail to secure the services of a skilled and experienced New Hampshire professional licensing attorney, you could face the prospect of being unemployed and without monetary resources to respond effectively to a professional licensing board investigation. We urge all our clients to be sure their professional liability insurance provides coverage for this highly undesirable situation.
