The risk of a jail or prison sentence can mean that individuals will be unable to go to work and jobs may be in jeopardy, but probation sentences can often help these offenders maintain employment while resolving their criminal defense cases.
When a person’s career involves a professional license, however, even a simple arrest can trigger a series of major consequences. Licensed professionals will frequently receive notices informing them that licensing boards are investigating alleged criminal offenses before formal complaints lead to hearings that can be critical in determining possible actions such as suspension or revocation of a license.
If you are a licensed professional in the Columbus area who was recently arrested for a criminal offense, try not to say anything to authorities until you have legal representation. You should also avoid making any comment about your arrest to any licensing board.

Ohio has a number of different agencies responsible for issuing professional licenses. Some of the most prominent include:
In most cases of a licensed professional being arrested, an alleged offender will receive a notice from the licensing board and the agency conducts an investigation. When there is sufficient evidence of a violation, a licensing board will schedule a hearing, after which disciplinary measures, such as administrative actions, may be taken.
Choosing a Criminal Defense Attorney
Will I Go to Jail for Committing a Crime?
Should I Just Please Guilty?
Undoubtedly the most frequent cause of professional licensing troubles usually concerns an arrest for operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs (OVI). This crime is frequently referred to as driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI) in other states. Any criminal charge can create professional licensing issues though. Other common kinds of criminal charges involved in these cases include, but are not limited to:
The outcome to a person’s criminal case can play an important role in the ultimate determinations made by licensing boards. A conviction obviously indicates a finding of guilt whereas an acquittal usually denotes that the state could not prove a person committed a criminal offense. These types of considerations need to be considered throughout the handling of your entire criminal case. Without proper representation, an alleged offender may be tempted to believe that a plea bargain involving pleading guilty to a reduced charge is beneficial when the guilty plea is actually incredibly damaging for their professional license. Certain outcomes can help avoid professional licensing issues. One such resolution is a consent decree. Some alleged offenders may be able to avoid professional licensing discipline by entering consent decrees, which usually admit liability of guilt and may be public or private. When the decree is public, then it will be available to other licensing agencies. Arrests can affect every conceivable angle of the professional licensing process. Sabol | Mallory helps people who are struggling with their initial applications for professional licenses as well as those who are facing disciplinary hearings for their current licenses or seeking to have licenses reinstated.
