Registered Nurses (RNs): Professional License Defense

If you’re an RN who has concerns about your nursing license, call to schedule a free legal consultation with a nurses attorney, (512) 829-5619. Note that the free consultation is ONLY for professional licensing matters.

If you are a Registered Nurse (RN) who has received notification from the Texas Board of Nursing (BON) that a complaint has been filed against you, we can help! In addition to providing legal services for RNs who are working in Texas (or have worked in Texas), we also assist traveling nurses.

Anyone can file a complaint about an RN with the nursing board, including patients, families, co-workers, colleagues, and employers. As a result, the BON receives more than 16,000 complaints per year.

Even if the allegation seems minor or without merit – something you could handle on your own – it can still be helpful to have an experienced nurses attorney on your side. Seemingly minor complaints and disciplinary sanctions from the board of nursing can have far-ranging impacts on your career.
