Attorney For Respiratory Therapists In Texas

In Texas, respiratory therapists are regulated by the Texas Medical Board (TMB). Anyone can file a complaint with the medical board, and suddenly you might find yourself embroiled in a legal process that could impact your job, your career opportunities, your earning potential, even your ability to continue to practice as a respiratory therapist.

At Keaney Law, we help healthcare professionals, including respiratory therapists, defend their professional licenses. Kevin Keaney has more than 30 years experience as an attorney. Before he became a lawyer, he earned his BSN from the University of Texas at Austin and practiced as a Registered Nurse for four years.

We can assist in all phases of the license defense process, including:

• response to the complaint letter from the Texas Medical Board
• investigation by the board
• informal settlement conference
• negotiations for disciplinary actions (Agreed Orders)
• hearings with an administrative law judge (ALJ)

• appeals
• compliance with an Agreed Order or probation
