Ardent Professional License Defense

Robert N. Levin will assess your situation, ascertain your rights, and advise you of viable legal defenses. He understands that your professional standing means everything—he will fight to retain or reinstate your license, and negotiate with licensing authorities to mitigate any penalties.

Mr. Levin is an accomplished trial lawyer with the acumen of 40 years in practice. Although harsh sanctions cannot always be avoided, he is proud of the fact that none of his clients have lost their license. He has achieved notable results for clients in a variety of professional license defense situations.

• For example, he represented a criminal defense lawyer who had agreed not to practice in Maryland. The attorney hadn't realized that reciprocal discipline would also prevent his practicing in Virginia or the District of Columbia, and Mr. Levin's intervention avoided his disbarment.

All Bar Counsel and Professional License Issues

The issues are varied—an engineer sued by the state for performing architect work; a pharmacist putting the wrong pills in a bottle or pilfering drugs to feed his own addiction; a counselor accused of sexually abusing a patient; a doctor appearing before the Medical Board for over-prescribing pain medications.

The level of representation is always the same—aggressive defense of our client's professional license and prudent negotiation to minimize sanctions. Contact Robert N.
