Nursing License Defense

Do you need to consult with an attorney regarding your nursing license or other professional licensing matter? Call (512) 829-5619 to schedule a free consultation with a nurse's attorney.

If you've received a letter from the Oregon State Board of Nursing, outlining a complaint that has been filed against you, this could be the beginning of a legal process that has the potential to jeopardize your nursing career.

Although you may be tempted to go it alone, in all likelihood, you’ll receive a better outcome if you have an experienced nursing license defense attorney at your side.

Common nursing license violations range from practicing with an expired license to substance abuse, poor patient care, falsifying documents, criminal arrests, dishonesty, and fraud.

If you are in trouble, we can help you through all stages of the nursing license defense process, including these:

• allegation
• investigation by the Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN)
• settlement or discipline
• administrative hearing
• Oregon Court of Appeals
