Overview of Administrative or Regulatory Practice Law |
Within the context of general administrative law, litigation often results when individuals or businesses run into infractions or compliance issues with state and federal regulatory agencies. Practically all trade and licensing in the continental United States are governed in some way or another by state and federal regulatory rules and regulations. The practice of administrative law encompasses the legal representation of individuals, businesses and institutions before such regulatory agencies. |
A portion of administrative law practice also includes the defense of licensing compliance for individuals and businesses. Frequently, a professional licensee holder such as a medical doctor, dentist, pharmacist, engineer or architect may be the subject of audit or license scrutiny by the relevant board of examiners or commission tasked to oversee commission rules and regulations. The task of the administrative law attorney or regulatory lawyer is to defend such licensing compliance issues before the respective hearing tribunals such as the State Office of Administrative Hearings, Board of Appeals, and other regulatory commissions. |
Why Hire an Administrative Lawyer? |
Frequently the issues involved in administrative proceedings are unique and regulatory specific and therefore more advantageous to hire an administrative attorney as opposed to any other attorney since the administrative attorney has the unique understanding of administrative rules and trade regulations to better defend and arrive at a workable solution for the individual or business facing such administrative rule proceedings. |
