Professional License at Risk Due to Improper Remarks or Actions? Here’s What to Do

Posted by Joseph D. Lento | Sep 12, 2024 | 0 Comments

Professional conferences and workshops can be a lot of fun. But they are also notorious because of the things that “go down” at these events. People tend to indulge in risque activities that could lead to poor judgment and questionable actions.

For example, people can get drunk, become loud, and make racist or threatening remarks about others. They might also find themselves in bed with people who are not their partners. Or they might even make inappropriate gestures towards others.

It's all fun and games until someone reports to your professional licensing board that you harassed them, they felt threatened or were violated by your actions. If that happens and a misconduct complaint is filed against you, you may face disciplinary action that could lead to the suspension or withdrawal of your professional license.

We get it. We've all been in situations where we had a little too much fun and got carried away. But that's not enough to lose your license. The Professional License Defense Team at the Lento Law Firm can help you navigate the process during the professional licensing board's disciplinary action.

With our knowledge of the broad professional license requirements landscape, we are committed to protecting your rights during the disciplinary hearing process.

Can Inappropriate Actions or Remarks Threaten Your License?

Yes. All licensing boards have a specific code of conduct required of all its members. So, while people in other professions might be able to get away with certain activities, professionals may not.

Now more than ever, you must be careful about inappropriate comments, remarks, or behaviors. Professionals are typically held to higher ethical and behavioral standards. So, actions or statements that others may be able to do and get away with, you may not be able to do the same.

And once there's proof that you broke specific profession-related rules or acted in an ethically abhorrent or untoward manner, it can translate to disciplinary actions. And if that's not handled appropriately or effectively, you may lose your professional license. This means you won't be able to practice anywhere in the country, and you'll likely lose your means of earning a living.
